If chello had any competition in holland, we'd get much more than 2560/384.

Cox should be available here as well, and chello will go bankrupt. *dreams away*

heya all, i have Cox.net in hamton roads also (virginia beach)

just upgrade to fastisbeautiful, extra 15 bucks a month but since im an xbox live gamer, thought it would be worth it.

BUT problems have arisen in the past few days.

as of right now i get 10kB/s download and 6 kB/s upload on a consistent basis, its rediculous

i am supposed to be getting what dude up there is getting.

Ive tried everything, eliminating every problem on my end.  Cox tech guy is coming this saturday to check everything out.  But since i upgraded, nothing but problems.  

Could it be the modem?  Its a 4 year old General instruments surfboard sb3100

oh well, guess i'll find out saturday.

(sometimes in off peak times i get as high as 144kB/s down and 60kB/s up, which is still far less download than what i used to get, and less upload than what im paying for)

thanks!

I Live in Va Beach Too..
I also Use My Network For Xbox Live..
Lately the Connection has Been Laggin Around..
and the Digital Cable sometimes isnt even Watchable..
I think a pole or Amp/Relay is downsomewhere.. i know someone else at the arcade at lynhaven mall was complaingin and several parents on my lil bro's marching band staff said its been wierd the last week or so..


BTW.. Whats Your Xbox Live Gamertag/Games You Play?

Oh And I Bought A CMx modem for like $20.

the Surfboard SB3100 is One way.. i think.. .

I noticed 2 years ago when i replaced the sb3100 Cox was charging me to use .. and i noticed and extreeme spped up in LAN gaming and Sending and Receiveng Large Files at the same time...

update on my Cox HSI status...

tech guy came out, swapped several connectors, upgraded to SB5120 modem.  now speeds are right at 600kB/s down, and 50 kB/s up.

not what was promised from fastisbeautiful as far as upload, however, i can now host 16 man rainbow six games flawlessly and 12 man games in ghost recon with full explosives.  So im somewhat passified atm.

and my gamertag is Lucky Strike, games i play: just about have em all Smile

 Smile Aint life great:) now you can have the speeds you pay for and also be a happy camper, Iam glad they "hooked" you up because Iam always saying that I believe that they are capable of fixing any problem and most of the time this is true:) except for your upload......but dont give up it may still be possible to correct any problems if you have some. Is it possible that you have alot of users in your area that may slow you down????good luck  Smile
