What a help this was! I was definitely overpaying! My ISP claimed they were providing a certain speed for the cost and I was definitely not getting what I was paying for. I think ISP should moniter their bandwiths for you and charge you less if you aren’t getting what you are paying for….

Hi Matt,

I use this site too and found my service sucked so I switched to a better service.
Definitely can’t take the word of the sales team for Broadband services.

I am not a techie. The time that I notice the speed of the internet is when I am doing large downloads or uploads. It makes a big difference. I am in the midwest and have had good experience with cable for speed. I had used DSL and it was too slow and too unreliable.

Thanks for the great tips … Comcast does seem to slow down at times and this is going to make me do some investigating on what I’m paying for vs. what they are saying.

On the go just about all the time, believe it or not, I use my 3g network with at&t. Teathering my phone to my laptop brings enough bandwidth to do my work, watch movies, and etc., but it is not the same as high speed. I don’t own a cable subscription but believe me, what I got works for me – although not as fast – and keeps me happy.

I always used to use Speakeasy Speed Test…but not being in Vancouver now, I need more server selection!

I just left a 1.25MB/s connection (up and down) to this 500kb/s down / 60kb/s up :’(
