Anyway, my cable ISP advertised speed is 5Mbps, and I get around 700-900KB/s from Usenetserver SSL connections.

Ah yes. So essentially I'm already maxing out my speed?

yah, I think that's around the right ballpark..

I have 10Mb and I get around 1.17MBPs which is very close to max.

My connection is going up to 20Mb sometime around April and around 50Mb sometime this year, cant wait

I have a 10Mbit line and I have got up to 1200-1300KB/s. Newsgroups are insanely fast. I usually get 1150KB/s or a little more.

I used to have roadrunners premium service . It was like 70 or 80 bucks a month. I think my connection was 8 or 9mbps. I could ALMOST download a megabyte per second, I think. I get mixed up with all the bytes, but it was 900-1000 something per second. Think I was downloading 900-1000KB per second. That's almost a megabyte per second right?
