WHOA! My comcast speed is now 32 Mbit down/ 3Mbit up!!!

19 April 2007 - 07:24 AM

This is no joke!  I've confirmed it with multiple speed tests both yesteday and today, on this site and a few others.  I have the 8Mbit / 768Kbit plan from Comcast and live in Eliot, ME.  A friend of mine who lives in town has confirmed the same speed on his connection as well.  Is anyone else noticing a speed increase in the last week?  Anyone seen any articles mention plans of this?  My connection was downloading consistently from fast servers at 4 MEGABYTES a second!  I think that's about double the speed of the average fiber optic speed here in the US.

Comcast - Insane speed upgrade??

10 June 2006 - 03:13 PM

Hello,

I live in Newmarket, a town in southern New Hampshire.  We pay for the higher speed tier on our cable service, which at the time, was advertised as 6 Mb down instead of the normal 5Mb.  Well, soon after we got it we noticed the speed went up to over 8 Mb/s speed, this is in multiple tests on multiple sites on different days and weeks.  I confirmed with others on this board that they seemed to upgraded recently to the same speed.  Recently however, after doing tests on this site and 2 other sites, i'm noticing our connection consistently scores between 12.5 and 15 Mb/s... over 1.6 megaBYTES a second!   

Has anyone else been upgraded like this recently?  Maybe comcast is unrolling it in areas wto compete with FIOS? 

We only pay 52.95 a month for this speed!  On good servers I download files at 1.5 or more Megabytes a second.  I love my Fibre-speed cable connection!
