Is it Worth Upgrading?

Right now i have my server hooked up to a router and the router to a modem(dcm-202). to get the strongset signal, i plugged the modem straight into the cable amp/aplitter we have in our house. i'm not sure if im satisfied with these speeeds and was wondering if there is any way to increase them, especially the upload speed. Usually when i go to a site like downloads.com and download a random file it downloads at about 430-500 kb/s. I also applied Van Burens 4000/384 tweak for cablenut.

Well upgrade if you want. I've seen some Comcast customers in this forum that are greatly satisfied with their speeds. I been greatly satisfied with my service which is Cox Premier Service 5000/768 for 55 bucks. :D
