Unless you can reproduce on multiple other speed test sites (visualware, etc) then I doubt you're really getting 75 down.

You could of course try to download multiple files from dl.tv or similar or try to torrent a VERY popular torrent to see if the aggregate bandwidth peaks at 75 or not.

Took some time to get things stable, though, because of the optimizations I did with my previous RoadRunner connection. The short of what I had to do was to change all TCP settings to their defaults, and set the MTU and RWIN values to blank. Restarted the PC and everything has been stable and super fast.

I'm also NOT using the Actiontec router they provided. My Cisco PIX handles this speed beautifully... so far :D. CPU on the PIX does go up to 50 when I push 20 Meg. 52-54% at 25 Meg.

It's the same for 20/20 people. They are (most likely) paying more than the 25/15 plan, yet are getting 20/20 versus 25/25. Granted, it's a smaller difference in throughput, but it's the same situation.

It's a calculated risk to jump ship from the 50/20 to 35/20 plan, if upstream is your goal. Personally, given the large difference in speeds and the unknown for how long this "fluff" is going to last, I'd stay put with 50/20 and see what happens in August. 20/20 to 25/15 isn't a big difference (although I would definitely prefer 20/20), so I took the risk - and the fact that it was cheaper helped. ;)
The only reason I downgraded from 50/20 to 35/20 is because Verizon offered a double play package with Unlimited Local and Long Distance calling + Caller ID and Voicemail for $30 cheaper than what I was paying for 50/20 + Basic local service.

Considering I can barely saturate my 50mb download, it makes financial sense.

That said, I'd love them to upgrade the 35/20 tier officially to 50/35 or maybe even 50/50 with the new highest tier being something like 75/35.

That'd be nice. :)

While I'm happy for you (and others getting this "bonus"), I'm pissed that those of us on 50/20 are currently being "forgotten"/treated basically like shit.

We pay more than double you guys, get less on the downstream, and get far less on the upload.. typically 49-50/20-21.

Is this right or what? I tested three times back to back and got these same speeds. Also this was after tweaking. The previous test was before tweaking. I hope these speeds keep up. I ordered the 35/20 package and I'am now getting 50/31 connections.


And I have the 50/20 ppackage and am now lucky to get 49mbs down and 19mbs ups. The upload is all over the place. Sometimes it's 5mbs, or 15 mbs you never know. And rarely it it will hit 19mbs now.
All I know is that FIOS sucks for INternet here now. The only reason it's better than COmast is because FIOS doesn't have a cap. I'm tempted to drop to a much slower speed tier now since I can't get what I'm supposed to be getting. And with Tech support being clueless, they aren't helping either.

I'm not saying 25/25 should be expected, just that it's what people are getting. It can and probably will go away, which I'm not looking forward to.

I would rather have had them provision as straight up 25/15 without this fluff crap if they are just going to take it away. I bit the bullet because by bundling I can save some money. But all things being equal, I'd rather have 20/20 than 25/15.

What is not clear is whether this "fluff" will remain indefinitely or whether it'll go *poof* one day without notice.

There is already one report of a person on 35/20 who was seeing 35/30-35 and is now seeing their advertised rate (35/20). Still waiting to see if they have run enough tests to confirm for certain, though.
