Technological advances make it possible. So does profiteering. Do you really think 160KB/s download speed is worth $40 a month in 2011? I mean come on, that's just pathetic. For how much they're charging, they have a huge profit margin. If people like Comcast really wanted a monopoly, then they're invest in more fiber lines, and increase the speed while keeping costs and prices the same. Imagine if Comcast offered let's say 50Mb/s for $40, while other companies offer at most 10Mb/s for that much. Who wouldn't go with Comcast? They wouldn't even have to kill Net Neutrality that way.



I had one of those this morning. Shaved it off but kept the chin. lol



Yeah, but I'm tired of waiting. My internet speed hasn't changed at all since 2006, yet the price hasn't gone down until recently. Do you see something wrong with that? I do.

ofc I see something wrong with that....just have to get on ur local politicians backs about it....there was FIOS 5 miles east and 5 miles west of me for like 2-3 years....and finally I talked to the mayor (lives on my street) about it..turns out he was a techy too, and started making noise...3 months later...poof we had FIOS

I need

1gbps upload

so I can run my server

I went up to a house at about 7 or 8
and said "yo homes, we need some FIOS"

I don't know where my local politicians live, and I don't have money to bribe them with. Who's going to listen to a 19 year old about the internet? Older folk don't take you seriously unless you're at least 25 and married, and religious with a family.



I think I could kill someone to get that kind of speed lol.

Comcast gave me a free 10mbps boost the other day

i want google internet

thats googles up and down speed.

400 channels, NFL Redzone, all the Showtimes, all the TMC's all the Flix and Epix and 35/35 inet for 108/month....I was paying 126/month with only 300 channels and 20/20 connection....I got notice saying they wanted to raise my bill...8/month...so I called to complain...and they said: get our double play package....for 108/month which I did


Best of all....as you can see...they always give a lil extra bandwidth as well
