I guess we first need to ask what speed you're paying for. I was with TWC before FiOS and I was getting much better than that, but I was also paying out the ass.

1.8 mB/s DL isn't that bad.

you retarded or what ?That's a bit harsh, but funny. :lol::lol:

Back to topic: Your DL looks good to me, but not so much your UL.

I too, had a descent DL but shitty UL, so that is why I got a box.

yeah its the upload that bugs me, could an old/bad modem possibly be the culprit?

Again, we'd need to know what you're paying for (supposed to be getting).

Well, you mostly get as much as your ISP provides you with (at least I do, but mine is way worse than yours). Visit your ISP's website to see if your getting what the plan says you should.

$5?! o_O That's fricking 6 times more cheaper than what I pay and I thought mine was pretty cheap! =O On-topic, I'd say your download is really good (better than mine), but your upload speed kinda fails for the price you're paying imo; especially considering this is in the U.S. =)

That seems about right for Time Warner Cable. When I had their standard package here (Maine) it was $44.95/month for 5Mbit/384Kbps. When I upgraded to the turbo package for an extra $10/month I had 10Mbps/1Mbps.

Now they've upgraded my turbo to 15Mbps/1Mbps. I'm pretty sure they increased the speeds for standard too but I'm not sure exactly what they are.

i dont think your speeds are bad. i get about 1500kbps down/500kbps up. i pay 40 bux a month. im on a local isp due to the fact that i live in a very rural area and they are the only ones that service this area. i was originally on a 768/256 plan. then they upgraded everyone to 4/1 (for free of course). ive never seen those speeds though. the tech says its because im out so far (im right at the edge of service). dsl has that distance limitation or so ive been told. im happy with what i am getting though even though it would be nice to get the advertised speeds.

does your cap mean you can only download 15gb PERIOD?

would you be cut off if you went over? like no more browsing?

i dont know if this will help you, but it might be worth checking out
