It was merely you saying you couldn't stand having those speeds made me think you must do a lot of down/uploading as browsing doesn't really change.
Lucky you ;)

Only time it comes in handy is for downloading updates or games for my PS3, updates and programs for my PC. I just can't believe some of these speeds is all. I thought they would have been better than that. I wonder how much people are being charged for them? Mine would run around $39.99 a month.

Mine's around $65 or so. :(

It makes very little difference to browsing, do a lot of down/uploading?

Thats home now! They must have done something to the connection since I used to have solid 13 down and 6 up. Now I'm stuck with 1 up. Hum?

That explains it. I figured it had to be free wifi going on.

Yeah mines just the uni halls internet
However, no torrenting allowed to take advantage of it!
Did torrent a COD patch, got 8mB/s (i think thats how you write it, always get confused)

Make a huge difference in browsing in my experience. I could feel the difference when I dropped from 30MB down to 15. UGH
