    Hm... I think $60 a month; I get 4MB down; and a throttled 2MB up. I would try and persuade my parents to switch to another service provider, but Commucast is the only thing available in our area


    I am a exsellent speller and I use grammer very good.

    Here we have 4 or 5 ISP, only three of them are noticeable, the others are jokes, the fastest speeds they offer are:

    CANTV>>>>>> 2048 kbps Down - 512 kbps Up = US $201.30
    Inter Cable>>> 4096 kbps Down - 256 kbps Up = US $101.04
    MovilMax>>>>> 2048 kbps Down - 1024 kbps UP = US $135.00

    I used all the three and now I am with the last one, it´s wireless and at least allows me to upload at "decent" speeds. But in the three cases the thing is "up to", meaning that you´ll never get that speed really, although in the beginning with MovilMax I got up to the double they offered, today if I´d get half-speed uploading I´d say: Thanks Lord. They are upgrading the system, raised monthly payments in 25% and I´m just waiting.
    InterCable is nothing else than a swindle, and CANTV a sad fuc*** joke.

    When cable first hit our town, i got on at the end of the beta test and was unlimit, and i mean NO limit! I had the entire bandwidth of the town divided by like 32 ppl, but i never actually measured it, i was mainly downloading from FTP and newsgroups at the time. Then one day after 3 months of being spoiled, they flipped the switch and i got UPTO 3mb and they connected 10,000 more houses that year.

    Pay nothing. The neighbors don't secure their connection.

    I also got cable when it first came out and there was no limit as well. Speed wasn't as fast back then though but I had my modem uncapped and I could upload at almost 10Mbit/s. there is no way to uncap this Docsis 2 modems now. Although there are ways to steal your neighbours bandwidth and no pay for internet but you actually need to steal someone's modem key to get online. My ISP now offers up to 30Mbit/s but still only 1Mbit up. But is $93 for that I think.

    Haha nice. I wish I had neighbors like that.. then I could torrent with my different computers and be able to upload at more than my speed. Anyway, I have DSL. $35 for 5 megabit (my line is bad, so I don't get 5mbit always..) and more or less 65-75 kB/s upload.
