knoxville up to 3Mbits?? I think so:)

I just did a download test from PC pitstop and DSL reports both show 2.8Mbits down. Can anybody else back this up for Knoxville, TN?

Thanks,

Knoxville is a prototype testing area for 3000/256. This may be temporary so don't get your hopes too high.

Well if they are testing, that's good news at least. Hopefully it goes well so the rest can enjoy some more speed.

Its a stress test kinda. To see how an average size system handles the bandwidth usage. It may one day soon roll out everywhere but again this is how it starts.

Could someone in the knoxville area download the test64 file from »ftp://ftp1.optonline.net while running NetPerSec at the same time and post a screen shot showing both? It would be nice to actually see these higher speeds. I'm not saying I don't believe them...just like to see for my own eyes!

Yes this appears to be true.

Ran several speed tests and got 2.9-3.2 consistently. Now this really rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

I really do hope this is true, and this stress test, can actually turn into reality for all comcast users. I wouldn't mind seeing fast speeds of 3MBits, although, I really wouldn't use that often. But still to have the knowledge and comfort that when I do download large files, or stream videos, that it is going that fast helps me.
