Meanwhile Virgin media is like EA they won't give a speed bump free all they'd do is ask you to "upgrade package"

Comcast has been really good on that front

I went from 75 -> 150 -> to now 350

Paying $79.99 including Home Security

Now if they could remove the dumb data cap I’d be even happier
 
Just a regular fiber connection i have. Not the fastes or the slowest. But its deliver the speed i need and a bit more to. But what i like the most is the ping. It is al ways at 3 MS.

1TB cap - started pushing really close to that cap in my household. Only 4 of us, but the problem would be the wife has to have the damn TV on at night and she'd run things on Netflix of Amazon all night. She'd wake up around 2am and start a show up again and fall back asleep....I think we hit 960GB back in February or May. I finally got a lot of DVDs copied on my HTPC/Plex system and she started streaming movies/shows off that. Our data usage dropped by almost 250GB the next month and now we barely go over 400GB on our total data for the month.

Issue I have is that Comcast constantly changes prices and then fucks it's current customers by raising the "introductory" price after 12 months - now you have to call them to bitch and get them to put the price back or shift your account to a new pricing structure that starts you all over on another 12 month introductory price.

Then Comcast has the audacity to send out letters saying things about how they appreciate you as a customer and want to give you a "deal" on adding more crap to your current plan for a few extra dollars for the next 12 months......great, another crappy introductory pricing plan for shit you don't need (cable, land line)....and they dare call you a great customer? Why would they want to screw a great customer over that has been with them for years and years, by jacking up the price after 12 months? They do this bass-ackwards. They should have a higher rate for a new customer and an incentive to drop the price by x% every year they're a customer without any other price increases. I'd be happy spending $75/month the first year, then maybe $70 the second year, then $65, $60 and finishing at $55/month after 5 years of being a dedicated customer......bah.

I'd leave Comcast, but the service from the competition in my area isn't any better - why leave one company to pay the same or more for the same or slightly worse service?

I got a massage from my phone provider, that they had uped my speed on my mobile 4g speed and this is the result. Not bad for a mobile connection. Fiber speed on my pc can be seen in #1553.

I was poking at how you said "massage" instead of "message". You know, like getting a back massage. :oops:

I digress. That's great LTE speeds. I don't think I get anything close to that on my phone in the area where I live but, I'm also not usually running speed tests because I don't have unlimited data and I tend to use most of it. :laugh:

New service today :rockout:

Tbh, anything was better than what I had before (25/5).

edit: For some reason, my ping tests so far are in the 20 range like above. I figured it'd be better than that.

I forgot now.. service dude might've said 45. I'm averaging about 40 in any case.

edit: Actually, it's advertised as 35, at least on a quick Google...
