Man I'd love to see 400 kbps down right now! How are you folks getting such great speeds? Yes it's not what you ordered, but look what I get:

17880 bits per second! This has been going on for 4 months now. At 6 am it'll be 5,000,000 bits per second. From 6 pm to 1 am M-F and 1 pm to 5 pm Sat and Sun, it's like this. My node is obviously massively oversold, but Brighthouse doesn't give a crap. I can't get DSL, but as soon as FIOS is available, I'm switching (Verizon installed fiber along my street last month). I have the $70 a month Virtual Office "Business Class" service.
