Let me put it this way, it would be faster if I went to Google headquarters and asked them to search for me. I'm not being sarcastic either. We've had 11 different router/modem setups, 5 different hardlines, and i kid you not, 18 technicians at our house to only tell us to upgrade to their shitty business package for better service.

When I had comcast it was really fast, then time warner came in an took over comcast and it slowed a tiny bit. But, it was fast around here either way.

wtf? my comcast is 10x faster than anything else I have used. Astound, sbc, pacbell. knock on wood, my comcast has NEVER been down ever.

Mine is rarely down and very fast. They stopped working on it in my area and ever since I have had well over 99% uptime. And it is very fast.

get the new pc magazine.. brother subscribes and they had a whole article on high speed internet. all the companies tested speeds, which states have faster internet, best time to surf, etc.

Even worse than their internet is their customer service

uh, nope, Comcast took over TimeWarner....at least as far as cable/internet goes...but anyway, it depends on what you mean by fast. surfing the web, its plenty fast...and well, with downloads I don't really know, I use Utorrent for downloading and can sometimes get a movie in about 30 minutes, and songs are real quick
