I have confirmation that the RR upgrade will be in effect as of January 31st for all RR customers. This will bump the basic RR from 3Mbs-5Mbs(375kbs-625kbs) but no change to the upload speed as of yet, I also have just found out the premium service will also be upgraded from 6Mbs to 8Mbs (750kbs-1000kbs) as with the basic service there will be no upload speed change. 5mbs/384kbs for 45 bucks is a very reasonable price for broadband, and those looking for a little more speed should get the premium service because 8mbs/512kbs for 69.95 is a great deal. Just thought I'd give you all an update on the RR upgrade situation, because up until now I had no idea the premium service would be upgraded, and the time warner rep I spoke with said the upload speeds would be upgraded soon.

He said they were first working on getting the download speeds upgraded for everyone, and that the next priority would be the upload speeds for everyone. Unfortunately I have no idea what kinda of upgrade this will be, hopefully a big one and soon  Very Happy

i think upload and download speeds should be equal

For example...RR ppl get 5Mbps download right now, so we should get 5Mbps upload too Very Happy

if only the world was perfect... Smile

5/5 would be pushing it hardcore lol.  I say we should have the option of the current (5/386)  or somethign like 2/2 for the same price. I can live with 250 kbs (RMS) ^  and v   Smile
