Thought I would be the first to post in the new provider reviews section of the forum.

Always a nice clean connection... always fast as a MOFO!

I currently have a 3/256 package from Charter. The down is fine. I just wish they would keep up with the competition and up the upload. I can't wait until 6/512 becomes the norm. Bliss can come in more ways than just ignorance.

Here is my Cox Speed and I too have the 4mbps/512kbps package as well. This is about as fast as I can get mine even tweaking it with VanBuren's Settings. I'm not really complaining tho.

[Mr. Hahn 1]

Gotta love the Cox.

[FishNET 0]

Cox has a monthly bandwidth limit of like 30 gigs down and 7 gigs up... and like 2 a day... Thats what I have against them... Internet should always be unlimited if you pay for 'unlimited'. I like to use my whole 3.0 / 768K to its fullest with Verizon, and know that I wont get a letter saying I used 160 gigs of bandwidth and Im abusing the network.

cox is cool but my router sucks nuts

From school though on the T1...I  WISH i had this upload speed at home.

[b5 0]

I current have the home office package  from Cox right now at 4mb/512k, I was thinking about getting another cable modem and account and mulitlinking them together using BAP, so I'd have around 10Mbps down, 1.5mbs up if I upgraded both accounts.  If I had the money to get a cisco 2600 router, i'd just set up load balancing then.
