In cast anyone doubts Blast!		 
I've had 16/2 Blast! for quite a few months, but today, after a 6 or 7 hour total (TV and Internet) outage, my upload speeds seem to have suddenly increased significantly. Not sure if this is the result of some kind of new-and-improved upload Powerboost, but prior to today I was very consistently getting around 3000 kbps up on all those flash and Java speed tests, never much above. As you can see, today's results are MUCH, MUCH higher:

NYC Speakeasy:
Download Speed: 15425 kbps (1928.1 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 4018 kbps (502.3 KB/sec transfer rate)





Not sure what's going on...but I like it!

 Thanks. I saw that thread a few weeks ago and forgot about it. It looks like the increase is just now being slowly being rolled out in parts of NJ. In the case of my area, the upload boost definitely kicked in today after a long and annoying area system outage. Good news following bad. I suppose my post would have been better suited for that other thread though.
