2.244 in CT. Any resident can tell you it's because of god awful fucking charter communications. Comcast isn't much better, not by a damn long shot. Optimum online FTW, 10-30mbit residencal and 100mbit commercial.

^^ yup.. 4 years ago I was getting 15Mbps via optimum online.. with 1.5Mbps uplink

now the best I can do is 12Mbps with road runner, 300Kbps uplink :'(

there's FiOS an hour to the west and an hour to the east, but not yet here.

but why are they using MEDIAN?

^^ um friggin nice!! Is that on the business cable or residential? They must have upgraded it since I last lived in CT. My mom is getting fed up with service interruptions with AT&T DSL, I should have her switch back to optimum.
