It could be the rest of the ppl in your neighborhood haven't gotten back online due to your ISP...so, you're possibly on the line by yourself, hence the fast speeds.  I've had a couple friends who got crazy speeds immediately following an outtage, network upgrades, etc, but it didn't last that long.

[tommie gorman]

mike5026 enjoy the speeds, they will probably not last long.

cache

Wheres mike at i wanna see thoes results lol.

[mike5026]

It is not cached. I cleared the temporary internet files and the cookies. So how is it cached?

[TimPawlak]

well, insight is very smart... eaither you are uncapping your modem *illegal* or they messed up *not likley* I have been an InsightBB customer since 1998.. never got above 800 kb/s.. and i havent seen anybody's insight actually that much faster than mine. They may be upgrading the backbones but they aren't upgrading the speeds.


Thanks, Tim

notice my backbone did not change at all.

[mike5026]

well why would I want to uncap my modem? I don't even know how to do that. I don't know but they're doing final upgrades here... and I did that trace and heres the results.

well, you COULD just be saying that... the highest plan insight has is the 6/512 plan....

Thanks, Tim

[TimPawlak]

well, i guess since they switched to sprint by you... i dunno.... i am still on ATT for some reason

that is false. insight is simply doing that to get away from AT&T they are also upgrading the speeds since they have never ever upgraded. basic is now 6/512 *well in less than 2 weeks* and the premium package is 10/1


Thanks, Tim

[splnut]

everyone should be transfered over to the sprint network now. the last upgrade i believe was on the 9th
