I currently have a 3/256 package from Charter. The down is fine. I just wish they would keep up with the competition and up the upload. I can't wait until 6/512 becomes the norm. Bliss can come in more ways than just ignorance. wink

Here is my Cox Speed and I too have the 4Mbps/512Kbps package as well. This is about as fast as I can get mine even tweaking it with VanBuren's Settings. I'm not really complaining tho.

Cox has a monthly bandwidth limit of like 30 gigs down and 7 gigs up... and like 2 a day... Thats what I have against them... Internet should always be unlimited if you pay for 'unlimited'. I like to use my whole 3.0 / 768K to its fullest with Verizon, and know that I wont get a letter saying I used 160 gigs of bandwidth and Im abusing the network.
