Oh man, we can barely get those speeds in Canada. From Ontario, the best residential connection we can get is about 50/2, 75GB traffic for $100/month with our cable lines. For DSL, companies are starting to roll out 25/7, 75GB for $74.90/month.

Only thing I notice with Charter, on my speed, is when I peg out a download for more than 2 hours using max bandwidth, they like to disconnect the modem a few times an hour. So, if I'm grabbing something via newsgroups, or backing up my dedicated server box (over a TB of space, over 800 gb used (video files)) I have to space it out over a few days, or keep the speed below about 1500kb a sec, else the modem (Charter) will disconnect me.
I did call about the 60mbit service at home the other day. Lowest I can get it (including my current tv service) is for an additional $100 a month. Still too much for what I use it for.Comment

I know its an old thread, but Charter cable in St. Louis area now has 100 Mbit Down / 5 Mbit up internet access. I don't have it, but was tempted. If only the upload speed were more than just 5Mbit, that seems a little low, compared to the download speed.Comment

Actually, with whatever current deals I got this last time around with Charter, it would of been $15 more a month to upgrade from 30Mbit down / 4 Mbit up to 100/5. If it were at least 10Mbit up, I would of done it, but I really don't see the need for 100Mbit down.Comment
