190Kbps? I get a steady 575-600kbps downstream on my cable modem.

S Klass, wait till your neighbors starting to know about your Cable provider...

"I am getting 5-6kb/s"

LoL they 'promise' to up the bandwidth available if more customers jump on the cable bandwagon. Well by that time I won't be living in this area anymore or DSL will be here and then I'll have a choice.
Notice I'm not revealing where I live or who's my provider! Trying to delay the inevitable I guess..

If and when I get it/ I'd be real happy with 500kbps Downloads....Notice I said "if", I don't hold much faith in Ameritech

Yup/ same here... They have a deal until the end of june tho, for free installation, and no charge on the hardware, 1 year signup, for 40 bucks...... If they don't provide a good product/ shrug POOF they be gone

GataSolo has got you beat S Klasse, his are Bytes, yours are bits (or at least that's the way you both notated it).

[S_Klass]

Well that's what I'm trying to figure out too.. did he mean bits or bytes. If he did mean bytes then he's getting 1520Kbps and that's smokin'!
