1 (one) happy Comcast(comca$t) Customer
 At this point I'de like to thank all of you in my area who switched to FIOS. My bandwith is (theoretically) now close to twice what you get, and 3 times what I should get on average. ......And I have Psuedo-proof! Woh.... #1 Woh.... #2 /bow Edit* Sorry for Double post! The back button is a bad habbit : -/ No worries...fast internet doesn't make me any better -_- |

Not to rain on your parade, but that first link is due to comcast's "turbo boost" or whatever they call it, where the first 10 MB of a download is uncapped, then they throttle you to 7 mbits or 12 mbits or whatever your plan is after the first 10 MB of a download, and the second link is pretty normal speeds for any premium tier cable internet. It varies depending on your geographic area, but most basic FiOS plans are 15 Mbits or 30Mbits or more if you pay verizon a little more per month.

I was of course, refering to the package equal in price to cable (16Mb I think?)
Regardless. I wont deny that FIOS is good stuff. |
