Thread: Comcast to increase internet speed

  1. #1
    Current subscribers will see up to a 50% increase.

    Their 4000/384 ($52 a month) will be increased to 6000/768 for the same price. Their 3000/256 ($42) will be increased to 4000/384.

    I cant wait, ill be able to d/l at 750 kB/s and upload at 96

    Just got my increase a few days ago. Getting ~700 kb/s upload and only 2500 down.

    They need to fix it

    Comcast is always increasing their speeds in my area too, but every time they say it, I test it and see no difference. I think they just lie about it to make us think they're looking out for us

    not always... it makes it real easy to be considered a leecher on private trackers. I have to upload for days on end without downloading to keep up my ratio
