      EV>Howdy! Tom,              EV>Time Warner keeps sending me Advertisements in my Postal Mailbox about       EV>their broadband internet at the fixed price of $14.99 USD Guaranteed.              Note that $14.99 is jsut a teaser rate to lock you in. Typicaly that       lasts for 6 months and in sone cases 1 year.       My Cox Cable Teaser Rate was $19.99 and then went to the standard rate       of $39.99 and recently was raised to $46.99              EV>Since You started using Cable broadband I was wondering what Rate do       EV>You get downloads at?, and what Speed Plan do You use?              I have the 5 Mbps Cox plan and consintly get 5700 Kbps, As measured by       "Net Speed Monitor" that I have instaled in the tool bar so I can       monitor what its going on.                     EV>I have read Cable has Rate Plans up to 50M, but not interested in       EV>having the TWC folks install their gear here at any speed, I'm just       EV>interested (Nosey) What Rate of Downloads You (Or Anyone) get at the       EV>Speed Plan You/They use.              Those speeds are typically only avilable with a Fiber connection              ---        þ SLMR 2.1a þ Typo Tom strikes agaoin        * Origin: Check Out Doc's QWK Mail Via Web BBS > DocsPlace.org (1:123/140)    |
