    16mb is fucking badass. Do you have basic Comcast (4meg) or do you upgrade it to get those speeds? I've got basic and I don't notice a diff unless they haven't changed it here yet.

    Mine is about 8 now.

    When FIOS (Verizon) comes to my area I'll get that.

    That'll be my internet at 15Mps and TV. I'm going to keep my dialtone on copper. If it's on fiber and the power goes out I'll have dialtone from battery backup for about an hour. Fuck that.

    Comcast Basic in my area is 6mbps down/768kbps up. My router right now only supports up to 11mbps of speed, i'll need to get a new one sooner or later..
