Wow, yours are FAST! Mine is like 3mbs download and .4mbs upload. I have ATT Fast access blah blah balh
Some peoples comments about their 50Meg+ connection make me sick 'ohh it's too slow', 'my crappy speed!' seriously.

Urgh! It's free with TalkTalk but we pay line rental + calls from them. All in all we pay about £23 a month for calls, broadband and line rental but my Mum sorts all that out. We pay for upto 8MB, but our area is max 2.5meg'ish.
Argh so annoying *cry*

Comcast Cable advertising 16Mbps...

now that is just rediculous!!!!!
we have ADSL2+, which is supposedly 24mbps, our ISP gives you only 20mbps MAX, then there is latency and all of that crap, i get about 17mbps...
how on earth you get it HIGHER i will never know.
If that sounds bad, see mine! I'm supposed to get 8mbps, but I don't even get 1mbps! Must be due to the time of day or something, usually get about 6mbps....

I hear ya'! I'm totally impressed with Comcast after having AT&T DSL 3.0 (with numbers of 3020kbps download and 300kbps upload) since it came out several years back. Comcast has HD cable TV, local and long distance phone and high-speed internet 16Mbps for $139 USD per month, pretty nice...
wow. thats quite stupid, im sorry for you! your exchange musnt be able to handle all the people using it or something??
you had me like 😱😱😱 because you put mbps instead of kbps, i nearly asked you if i could come and live with you lol. still thats better than mine by a lot. 16megabytes??? wow.... crazy. we are so far behind here in australia.
i pay $100AUS ($65US) for internet (internet only, not home phone or anything else), with 25GB download (capped to 64kb when i go over).. its totally stupid!
Our plan is 1.5 Mbps…(less in practice)…yeah. I don't think anyone else here has the right to winge 😛
We, like many live too far from any exchange to get anything faster.
Too funny! Yup, I caught it just a bit after I posted, thanks. Hopefully things will change for you guys "down under." That's just not fair...
