Cox Users - Service Upgraded

Hey everyone,
I did a search on this subject and did not see anything, so here is some awesome news:

http://usercenter.cox.net/rsuite/sdcuser/default.jsp

Cox has bumped basic home HSI connection speeds up from 3000 / 256 to 4000 / 512 (kbps). I saw a commercial on this last night at about 1 am and immediately got up and did a speed test. The results were a major improvement, but I was only at about 2400 / 512. I did a tweak test at dslreports.com and found that my TCP Recieve Window (RWIN) was only at about 17550. I downloaded their free tweak tool and jacked it up to 50000 and the connection speeds jumped to 3637 / 512. Not bad.

SBC is gonna have some catching up to do with their DSL.
