Im sure this is "BS", RR does not even offer that speed on any of its tiers. Nice try!

RR does offer those kinds of speeds and even more in some areas. I know in Columbus Ohio they were offering 10MB/10MB
as a tier for their business customers a while back.
While that hasn't carried over to residential customers as of yet it really shouldn't be surprising to see higher speeds ..and lower ones as well..as they seek to compete with SBC and their offerings now

It's not BS. TWC, Raleigh Division, is conducting a "comprehensive speed test." The cap has been raised from 3000/384 kbps to 6000/512 kbps.
The Cable Plant, here in Fayetteville and surrounding area, has been getting completely swept and balanced for the launch of "digital phone service."
Here's a link to a speed test i just did:

Anything to beat sbc? lol, since anyone can get this speed on RR, there will be a serious bandwidth issue! 
But your just had an upgrade recently from 2/384 to 3/384? and now another one because of your crazy demand? I would be very jealous if all of ya gets your speed increased to 6/512 beating my sbc connection by 100k/sec on downloads! |

Wow! Do you mind running the DocsDiag Program on your cable modem?
»/faq/8421
Don't worry about the title, it works with all Cable Modems, then when it extracts the data from the modem, either copy and paste it here or create a screenshot so we can take a look at the QoS Upstream/Downstream Bandwidth
Numbers.
664 kb/sec = 5312kbps

Slow down there, Yes Road Runner can infact upgrade/provide thos speeds, just like certain Ohio Domains mysteriously got the 512kbps upload speeds....

How did you find out about Raleigh Division conducting a "comprehensive speed test"? BTW Nice Speeds Hopefully New York City will get them

Make sure your PC is connected DIRECTLY to the modem.
