Hey its not your fault, the TeleComms been raping the consumer. Everyone should have had faster speeds by now but all the big companies used the government money for other stuff. It sucks.

Thanks I got FIOS as soon as it was available in my area. The guy who installed it was pretty cool, he let me hang around and ask him questions when he installed it. He said supposedly there will be 50meg down sometime in the future. Its interesting because on the ONT there is a 100Meg Link light. So I guess in theory you could get 100 down if they supported it. Having a fat pipe is nice, its not like I get 20 megs down from every server. I really dont notice faster speeds all the time, its just only on servers that can handle it. What I have noticed is increased bandwidth, which means I can have more simultaneous downloads going without degradation.

I got the 20/5 package. Its a great price, i was paying 49 for Optonline. Now I pay 44 for a 5 up pipe. Here are my results. :::..
