I am running about 360 upstream now, but I could handle more. I would have to break down and do my happy dance. |

While they may offer you higher upload, they may start doing what OOL does which is cap you for excessive uploading. |

That's nice and all, but i wish verizon would finally wake up and give us more upstream than the horrible 128k we have now...which isn't even broadband to begin with.. |

Re: lucky, lucky bastards
Oh what a Christmas present! I'm glad Timer Warner is stepping forward and enforcing this cap. Hopefully others such as Comcast and Adelphia will follow in suite.

Re: poor me
Most Charter customers still only have 128k up. Some of us still don't have the 2mb down that came out in October, and some of us never will get it.

Nothing has happened.... YET. And TWC has yet to confirm it officially of course.
I would not object though!

Re: Wake up Verizon!
I could go for some 256 or 512 upload speed. Right now i'm at 784/128 and all my server can manage is a little over 3 clients provided they too are broadband.
1500/512 with Earthlink's no down/upload limit...mmmmmmm............

Re: Awesome
They need to start making these speeds constant for both up and downstream, that would be the major improvement. I like to watch videos over launch.com and I found until Adelphia just raised their cap on upload to 256k it was impossible to watch the videos, leadign me to conclude that upstream is almost as important if not moreso than downstream. |

Always, they'll give you all kinds of bandwidth, and then then put on a bandwidth restriction.

| Higher speeds, but
Does cable industry also uses download/upload caps?
Are servers restricted (like in OOL TOS)?
128kbps upstream is nice, but insufficient for 3 computers and if somebody uploads or plays online, even download is affected.
Verizon, bring us 256k at least
