h2haxor Posted October 15, 2006 CID Share Posted October 15, 2006 yeah, they upgraded my area around a week ago. sadly i'm having frequent trouble with downloads.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PeePs Posted October 16, 2006 CID Share Posted October 16, 2006 I wonder if they increased their basic package too? I remember when they increased it from 5 mb to 9 mb I didnt get the increased speeds because I didn't have the "Premier package" or something. Welp, when I go home from college for thanksgiving break ill test and see . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
