Happy w/ Cable

said by removed See Profile:
..if only they could improve support, latency, and routing.... *pets his DSL router*
Well, we are in the process of getting moved** (only 6 blocks - but about 1 1/2 mile in the car)
and have switched
from SprintFastConnect (dsl)
to Mindspring via Time Warner (cable).

Our latency has dropped from 113 with SFC to 40 or50 w/ cable. AND instead of 1300 -1400 downloads, we are getting around 3100. (With Tweaking yet to be done)

On the hole, I'm really appreciating the "broader broadband" of cable. (yeah, yeah, I know I still need to update my ISP review)

** We started moving in November and expect to complete it sometime in January or February - Roam wasn't built in a day

Don't worry... DSL is due for another comeback.

Be it ever so home, there's no place like Humble.
