[Speed] Can someone please post all the speeds available on Comcast?I currently have 105, but I have no clue what that means other then it is faster then 50. Can someone please list all the different speeds they offer and how it is written down so I know how to converse with somebody.
Forgive me, I am turning into my father.

Thanks guys. For the life of me I could not find that page. |

Though that FAQs page needs an update to show the latest doubled and new rates in many areas now (Blast! 105 Mbps, Extreme 150, etc.). |

Here in Atlanta, the "Performance" is 25 down/5 up and costs $54.95 per month IF you also have cable TV service at the same location. Internet-only would e $67.95, I believe. I get the "Limited Basic" TV via my apartment, so I qualify for the $54.95/month price, thankfully. |

Re: [Speed] Can someone please post all the speeds available on Comcast?It's going to vary in some areas too, as far as I know Santa Cruz County is still at 36/6 for Blast!. |

Re: [Speed] Can someone please post all the speeds available on Comcast?The upstream speed is always the factor that seems to get confused as of recently with the speed upgrade. |

I assume as long as you have access to XfinityWiFi, you have the same amount of hotspots as someone else on a different tier. |

What is a good internet speed for home use with no streaming or downloading?
I have 3 laptops that use the internet, two of which are WIFI.
I currently have Blast 105, but I am thinking that is too much. If I dropped to Blast 50, would my Wireless speed also drop?
Thanks

said by Acct101:If I dropped to Blast 50, would my Wireless speed also drop? probably yes, if you droptted to 50 then everything on your network going to/from the internet would be limited to ~57mbps, wireless or wired. that said, if you're not already getting more than that over your wireless devices now, then you shouldn't see a change. |

I'm getting 58 Mbps/12 MbPs Wireless with Blast 105. Not sure if that is good or bad. But would i do much worse if I dropped to Blast 50? |

Perhaps your account isn't provisioned correctly with the right speeds you're paying for... Do you get the same speeds if you test on a device hardwired with ethernet, into your router? And do you get the same speeds testing straight into your modem? |

With Ethernet, it's usually 60 to 90 Mbps.
Should i expect the same wireless speed as with Ethernet?
Thank you!
The cable is coming from my PC into the laptop on my desk in the living room. |

I have 105 and at home on my wired PC I get 120MBPS down and 25MBPS up. On wifi I get around 60-70 MBPS and 25MBPS up of course that depends on where I am in the house. Make sure your wireless router and the device you are using supports 802.11N and 5.2 ghz frequency |
