New York, NY | lol Those are some sad upload speeds |

| No, Qwest has sad upload speeds. Comcast's are just to keep up with downstream.

New York, NY | Comcast should just match fios speeds and for a company that big having those upload speeds is a joke. I'm happy with my 25/25 shooting at 35/35. |

Seriously now. I have 35/35 from FIOS along with TV and Phone in a $139 bundle - and Comcast is calling these "new" tiers?? LOL.

said by glinc:Those are some sad upload speeds The fastest internet I can get is 25/2 and I can't even achieve anywhere near those speeds, plus it costs me $95/month, bundled. I'm pretty sure 4Mb is far from sad. I'd give my left nut to have 15/4 for $65/month. |

1 edit | I happen to live approx. 1144ft from the Qwest DSL terminal. I currently paying $60/month for 20/5 VDSL. My speeds are stable and I get what I pay for. If I wanted to pay the cost, I am able to get 40/20 VDSL. |

| Since when does Qwest have 40/20 VDSL in Seattle? I was under the impression only peeps in Denver had it available. |

Seattle, WA | They rolled it out not that long ago. Also, the neighborhood I live in was torn down and so all the new houses here are new construction. I'm assuming Qwest saw this as an opportunity. |
|
| Interesting. Don't know if BBR ever posted about it. Hope it comes down south from you soon. Fastest offered here from them is 5Mbps/896kbps.  |

Seattle, WA | When I first moved here, the fastest available was 7/896 and then one day I checked and I could get all the way up to 40/20. I was like WTF?!?! Lol |
|
| Lol, quite a change. Well, hope they give Portland, OR some love soon. |

4 edits | Yeah. I attached a picture of my DSL Status Page...some stuff whited out..for obvious reasons...lol.
I also uploaded a picture of the order page where I can change my speed. The 20Mbps is missing obviously because I already have it.
I'm also glad I ordered when I did because I was able to get on the PFL deal and now Qwest has done away with it. Lol |

| Nice! |

Yes they are. The sad thing is that 20/4 has better upload speed than Qwest in most of their footprint (non-VDSL2) and AT&T in all of their footprint. The only company that competes with Comcast and beats their upload speeds is FiOS. |

Yea.. comcast should match Verizon's FIOS speeds here in the twin cities becuase it would really show Qwest, huh!?
Fios isn't Jesus just like the iPhone isn't either. I think Comcast or ANY ISP should offer tiers that they 'can actually handle and deliver'... how's that for an answer? |

said by glinc:Those are some sad upload speeds The FASTEST I can get on TW ("turbo" tier) is 15/768. I would KILL for 15/2! |
