I also use Mediacom... I had a question for you though.

What download speeds do you get with Mediacom? I get S#!t... 350 down, 30 up.

They are gonna be upgrading Mediacom to 5mbits... I called them like a week ago, and they said it will be up in a few months.

 Welcome To The Forum  Renegd98

Nice speeds, They're not S#!tty. Thats a good speed.


 

I agree they are a fairly crappy IsP.  they have 3mps down and 256Kbs up.  the only thing this si good for is downloading. don't try to play any online games because you will get kicked for high ping and xbox and ps2 online play is choppy.  I found quest dsl is better for my area 1500 down 768 up

Hola guys.  Newbie to these forums.  I have Mediacom here in south Alabama and I'm getting great speeds.  Just ran this test.

I am in Springfield, MO and I get great Download speed and great upload speed. I just wish the Upstream was more like 512 or 786 256 is practically stone age. But hey I got the 1st mo free and only pay 29.95 after that. I called to ask if they had faster plans and I was told that there are Beta testers out there with 10/1, I'd sure like to be in that group. Also there is a new "gamers" package in development that will boast more upstream speed.

Came to this forum for help.  Just moved to FL from NM (Comcast High-Speed).  My connection speeds are way down (less than 1Mbps).  I keep getting kicked from servers in BF2, and constant CIs (connection interrupted) during JO.  I haven't changed any settings on my comp yet.  Went from a motorolla cable modem with a Linksys Wireless Router to now just having a Linksys Cable Modem.  Any hints or tips on getting a lot more out of my connection would be greatly appreciated.  I built my own comp, so I understand hardware.  I have it tweaked for gaming, but I am pretty much clueless on internet connections.

You didn't specify your modem....But I have found getting an updated modem like a Motorola Surfboard sb5120 my speeds went up!  If your running windows XP you shouldnt mess with any rwin settings....XP is set to handle all this for you.  If your speeds are still sucking call for a tech to come out and check things.  Make sure you request a field tech with equipment, to test your line with a lap top and a modem...
Also look at your signal strenght for your modem and post all the results.. Upstream and downstream as well as SNR
