Yeah, Adelphia says that the cap is 3meg, but I consistently get 3.9+ at this site, and 3.5meg with Speakeasy in NYC.  I am in KY.

This is with no tweaking.  This is right after the installation of the Power Link software after a reformat.

Sweet!

BTW, very nice site that you have built here.  I've been testing and lurking here for about a year and a half.

I was having problems with my download speed.  It had dropped to 1.9meg over the past couple of months.  I called Adelphia customer service, which of course was no help.  That's why I did the reformat.  And just so you know, the engineer wanted to know what my connection speed was, so she sent me to a URL that has a download test, and an upload test.  Guess what site it was?  I was shocked to say the least.  I thought that she would direct me to some obscure Adelphia site where they have an internet connection test that they run from their servers.  But I was wrong.

Yes, she sent me to testmy.net.    Cool

That is not a suprise... testmy.net is the most accurate test... Thanks to CA3LE who has spent tons of time makeing it a really sweet place!!

The only reason that I can think of for them sending you here is that if you test inhouse off of their servers you really arnt experiencing the true speed... I might be wrong on this it seems that the way that they have the system setup it is like a really big lan...   Rolling Eyes  wink
