http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Im-Back-264491 en Thu, 24 Mar 2022 12:08:13 EDT Thu, 24 Mar 2022 12:08:13 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Im-Back-268584 I currently have 416/416 SDSL from NorthPoint and like the higher upload speed, especially for gaming, even though I've had less time to do that lately :(
Telocity will be a month to month deal, with the same speed for $49.95, so we'll see how that goes for a couple of months.

Here's what I get to yahoo now:

and a decent Dr. Ping:
Your Score: 46.5
(all-user average score is 90.9)

I'm hoping to hang on to these numbers for a while.

My review is at http://www.dslreports.com/comments/361.

You might also consider switching to @Home cable.

I have 608/128 with good pings. Since I was stuck off-line for about 5 months, I did a lot of research. If you check out Dr. Ping in the Tools section of DSLReports
http://www.dslreports.com/beta/doctorping/VA

you'll see that I scored an average ping of 62, however, the majority of people who have @home in our area have lower average pings. Not only that, @Home offers 1.5M bandwidth and it's cheaper ($40/mo.)

Unfortunately, @Home is not scheduled to upgrade the cable internet services in my area of Arlington until early next year. Currently, cable offered in my area is about 400K down but I would have to use a 56K modem over the phone line for upload, which sucks, cause then I'ld need a second line anyway, plus it's $50/mo. Go figure.

Anyway, Good luck. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Im-Back-267085 Mon, 18 Dec 2000 17:27:59 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Im-Back-266698 Do you have a review of your Capunet service? My Flashcom is turning into Telocity soon and I am looking for other options just in case.
