deadwood Posted July 29, 2005 CID Share Posted July 29, 2005 hello in a seperate topic you posted you pay $29.99/month which indicates to me that you are paying for the lowest speed tier of service. if you are indeed paying for the lowest speed tier (commonly 384kbit/128kbit), to me those speeds look good. you'll need to upgrade your service to get faster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bri Posted July 30, 2005 CID Share Posted July 30, 2005 Qwest has a deal right now for 5 meg dsl for $29! for a whole year. Free modem rental / installation too. If you're not happy with your speeds I suggest trying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
destructionfever Posted July 30, 2005 CID Share Posted July 30, 2005 That's an attractive deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry Posted August 1, 2005 CID Share Posted August 1, 2005 Charter may have accidentally provisioned your modem for the lower tier 384/128. I receive 3/256 for $29.95 (few months left on the promotion). Call Charter and check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
