Comcast should be sued...again.

What's wrong with that? :-\. That is exactly how fast my connection is. :-\

you guys think too much =P
my speed, 2mbps(253KB/s) starting at 25us$ a month, no caps but charges 0.1us$ per GB, so far no closed ports but a sad story of i usually only reach 100KB/s at best and 50KB/s at average, oh and from time to time and no laughable time length the average speed drops to 20KB/s... and maybe reaches the theoretical 253KB/s cap around half a week for the whole month.
oh and theres this new high-speed ISP available in our area with a 5mbps 15GB cap for 24us$ a month, also has an interleaved path and tons of closed ports.
vuzedome:
I pay 28 USD a month for 1.5mbps up and 512kbps down.
No limits....
But there's the 4mbps up and 1mbps down for 35 USD but that's just out of the question due to quality reasons.
If you consider COMCAST to be 3rd world then mine would still be in the 90's I guess.
kitamesume:
4:1 for 35usd... wow... wish i had that kind of option though indeed quality reasons.
me just want a constant 256KB/s downstream and 128KB/s upstream and i'll be happy, though seriously, i see other countries reach 2MB/s line its nothing -,- demn...

LOL
Poor you, if you don't like Comcast, switch. If you have no other option to switch, then don't use 250 GBs of data. If you think 250 GBs is too low of a cap (which, I would like to hear your reasoning), then why/how do you average around 8.3 GBs of data usage a day? I understand that you might download a lot of shows or games or whatever else you might acquire from the internet... but honestly, I find it hard to find enough stuff that I want to go over 100 GBs (let alone live with someone who does the exact same thing as we all do). I see my usage on my router... highest we have ever gone was like 180~ GBs. Close, but no cigar.
So if you don't like Comcasts dealings or how they operate... the internet isn't a right, it's a privilege for those who pay.
