What is up?
Ever since this afternoon I cant get more than 13kilobytes download its friggin killin me man.
Is it because of the updates? My email didnt say anything about speed reductions until they were finished upgrading... i was expecting downtime.
Any help?
I ran a couple tests before as well, and they were really slow.. my upload seemed normal though.

Saw the same thing at work Tusday as well. At home, things were moving along at 2000/256. Both Adelphia. YMMV I guess... |

You might have to move a little further south  . In Boca Raton, I've been consistently better than 2800 / 120. Just ran a test remotely (Remote Desktop into my home machine - which by itself is a bit of a bandwidth hog), and got this. These tests are to Speakeasy, CA.

Speeds are nice as usual in Royal Palm. In the email I received about upgrades, the following was stated:
"To facilitate this exciting change for Power Link customers, there are some upgrades required in the Adelphia network. While we do not expect these changes to have an impact to the vast majority of customers, some customers may be impacted."
Just a thought |

What is the download/upload "cap" now for South Florida. Is it 3000/128 or 3000/256?
Right now, my connection speed says 3000/128.

| Hob, when are they gonna upgrade down here? I'm looking forward to the new tiers...
Today my IP changed (for the first time in 5 months) and I hoped we were upgraded, but it was a no-go
