tbaker397 Posted August 19, 2005 CID Share Posted August 19, 2005 What is your current download speed. Comcast is in the process of upgrading a lot of areas. The basic tier of service is going from 4/384- 6/384 and the gold is going from 6/768 - 8/768. Maybe your area hasn't been upgraded yet or they are in the process of.

Nos7667 Posted August 21, 2005 CID Share Posted August 21, 2005 TBaker fix the part where you mixed up the 384. It looks like you said comcast is downgrading upload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
organ_shifter Posted August 21, 2005 CID Share Posted August 21, 2005 TBaker fix the part where you mixed up the 384. It looks like you said comcast is downgrading upload. Actually, Comcast is downgrading the upload. Right now, I have 6000/768. When I get the 8000/768, I will have to stay at that package in order to keep that upload speed. If, for whatever reason, I decide that I don't want the 8Mbps down, I wouldn't be able to go back to 6000/768. I'll have to accept the 6000/384 package. I'm happy that Comcast made it so that if you subscribe to any cable tv service (yes, even limited basic TV), you will be upgraded to the higher packages at no additional charge.

Theace1 Posted August 22, 2005 CID Share Posted August 22, 2005 What do you mean? I have Digital Cable, and the 4 mb / 384kbps package, does that mean I will be upgraded to Gold tier? Probably not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
organ_shifter Posted August 22, 2005 CID Share Posted August 22, 2005 What do you mean? I have Digital Cable, and the 4 mb / 384kbps package, does that mean I will be upgraded to Gold tier? Probably not... You will automatically be upgraded to the 6000/384 package. It's not the gold tier, but just a free upgrade because you subscribe to a cable tv package. For $10 more, you can get the gold tier at 8000/768. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theace1 Posted August 22, 2005 CID Share Posted August 22, 2005 I thought everyone was getting upgraded automatically. I need more upload. I might go Gold once i cut off my phone line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netmasta Posted August 22, 2005 CID Share Posted August 22, 2005 I thought everyone was getting upgraded automatically. I need more upload. I might go Gold once i cut off my phone line. You are. If you currently have 4Mb/384Kb you will be automatically be upgrated to 6Mb/384Kb. The 6/768 NOW 8/768 is $10 extra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Network Posted August 30, 2005 CID Share Posted August 30, 2005 When I had the Cable TV with the Internet I still only got 4.0/385 speed. Shouldn't they have upgraded it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventhough they are using the same carriers I cant stay online long enough at a time to use what I currently get Momma said thy'd be days like that!
