I'm now up with Megapath. I've yet to submit the expenses to my employer for the new ISP, and pray that they won't have a Myocardial and deny it to me. I'm thinking about cable, as it just became available in my area, but I really don't want to venture into the shared-bandwidth arena. I have a feeling that I may have to switch eventually, and nothing else reasonable is available in my area. At least I'm back up with a fat pipe.
Speed varies wildly.
But in my ignorance, I don't really know what the numbers mean in relation to the maximum speed the cable modem people talk about. They say the max upload speed is 128, so I don't know how I'm getting 304, unless I'm comparing different units of measurement. I still keep a basic dial-up account alive, for those times when the cable modem service is on the fritz. It's amazing but my IBS mail account is still up too. Sounds like they're wary of the courts to me.
