OK was not sure where to put this and guessed this was as good a place as any.

I get a letter from my ISP (Time Warner Road Runner) telling me they have raised download speed form 3.5Mbs to 5Mbs and all I have to do is reset my modem. So of course I reset the modem and run to DSL Reports to run a speed test. Dad is a happy camper Grin

HOLY CRAP! I used to get great scores on these test before I move last spring, but thought my speed was less in the new house! I couldn't have been more wrong... (Optimum Online)

Just did this one...

Damn BB that rocks. On my second run thru of the test I got back to 365kbs up which is lousy but at least matches what they advertise.

I've been paying $45 a month. I hope they dont raise it now. I have had the service for about 6 yrs and they have only raised the price on my once by $5 so that is pretty good.
