Got the email from Comcast today - the connection speed on my cable modem internet connection doubled today. Just ran the speed test - 3150 kbps. Woo-hoo!!

Just curious - what's the upload speed? If you think about all the wonderful things you can do with broadband, such as sharing your pictures or video with friends, using voice or video chat, work from home and so on - all these involve at least as much uploading as downloading. Yet everybody seems to be happy with triple the speed of a modem, 128Kbit... Dowload speed is nice if you're going to download music or videos though :)

My upload is also capped at 256kbps, which is unchanged. They only upped the download speed, unfortunately.

I hope mine's been improved too. That would be great. Improving the upload speed would be great too, but I understand the difficulties, and its not like I can just switch to DSL. I'm too far away!
