I just spoke with OOL and was told they haven't decided yet what the new caps will be;there might be different speed packages available but it definetely will NOT be a free upgrade.

Do you know when that will be available?

Yeah their caps are 10 down 1 up so I'm doing ok.I heard they are going to raise caps to 50 down 10 up.Probably charge up the kazoo for it though.

I pay 45.00 a month.
