I think they took away the turbo boost. So longer transfers are faster but my speedtest.net actually decreased a little.

It's a plot to get you to hit your usage caps faster so they can charge you overages!

Does this apply to Earthlink customers? Earthlink uses Time Warner cable's cable lines.

Thanks OP. I noticed a difference (already on turbo).
Upload speed is still terrible but a boost from 70KB/s to ~240KB/s Download went from 15Mbps to ~19-20Mbps  My Frontpage Deals: Thanks everybody!

I got the email yesterday and sure enough, 50% speed increase by just unplugging and replugging the unit in.
I'll take it... |

have been using TWC/ Earthink for couple years already. Once in a while, I test speed on speedtest.net. I haven't do the test for a while (couple months). I have always been getting 10/1. And just did the test again, seems it's 50% more. Now it's 15/1. OP, Thanks for the heads up. I feel a little bit better now for the high fee I'm paying twc each month!!!

A ping of 26ms is 0.026 seconds to respond, a ping of 200 is 0.2 seconds, so the lower ping will react much quicker. In general a low ping is most important for online gaming. |
