Finally ditched my 1500/384 ADSL for Cable, no regrets.
About 6x the download speed and 2x the upload speed for the same price ($44.95/mo + tax), I should have did it years earlier. My actual download speeds level out at about 954 KB/sec.

To keep with the original requests of this thread I re-tested with Speakeasy and am providing the required information.
ISP Cox/Suddenlink Type Cable Price $48.99/mo. This is only $4.00 more than I paid for Roadrunner before I moved and it wasn't even close to this speed!
ps:
I don't think LIN will want to move in with Leishi now.
well i pay nearly £24 for my connection and am told that because i am 4.3km away from my nearest exchange i cant get the 24 meg broadband that most are offering
Nobody gets 24mb in the UK, phone lines are just not up to it.
embarq dsl 3m/512k service...which I just cancelled tonight because the mediacom cable offers 15mb/3mb now for cheaper!...I will have my modem tomorrow and post some benches...
Thats ATT for ya... I love mine. I'm guessing thats the Elite package?
Yes it is, cool part about the whole thing, is that I was paying 32.99 or 37.99...can't remember for the 3MB/512KB package you are using....it cost me less for twice the down...I was like...sign me up !!

even so i am told that my maximum is 2mb
i cant even get 8meg broadband
I get 5MB for £17.99.
is that 17.99 unlimited?
Its £17.99 for 8MB but they said we could only receive 5MB. Still not bad, though.
i think pipex are limiting me but not actually admitting it
my line drops sometimes and i have to restart my comp
usually happens when im dl'ing
very annoying!
The line drops, sometimes but I think that's due our router.
i think pipex are trying to sabotage me!
Just wondering: What would be the average download speed for 5MB, that is used between two computers?
That's simply the highest I've seen it. www.dslreports.com never gets that high
i can leave anytime i think
i may be getting sky soon in which case i ill get sky broadband
$55.99 15m/1m Cable (canceled DSL and phone)
$10/month cheaper and I never did need a land-line phone. Cell works fine.
3mb DOWN, 512kbps UP - $17.99/month
the ridiculous speeds you guys are getting
my line here in the uk will apparently only ALLOW a 2MB connection
its quite sad
