We finally got Digital Cable Internet where I live and have been running some speed tests to see how fast it is.

I used http://www.testmy.net/speedtest/d_load.php for the tests.

My best so far w/o any computer setting tweeks is:

says 3.7MB/s with 100MB download... comcast sucks and i'm wireless w Airport Xtreme but opens up a little when i'm torrenting music/movies tho bittorrent eats up some bandwidth.

going Verizon wireless broadband once i'm not locked up in my house anymore.

edit2: other speed test sites are sayin' 7.2 to 10.8, i wonder how reliable these test sites are ??

Good info guys, keep em coming.

One of the members on the testmy.net forum sees 73xxx download speeds! Holy crap that must be fast. I think mine flies now.

I am going to make some tweeks anyway just to see if it will increase. It's a SPEED addiction. hehehe..
