using <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/">http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/</a>.
My download speed is 28,998kbps and upload is 6,864kbps from the
Chicago server. 23,694kbps down and 4,087kbps up to the Seattle
server. These numbers aren't 100% accurate since I am
uploading some backups while performing the tests.<br>
<br>
I was originally a Time Warner Cable business class customer and I paid
$120 per month. I called Comcast a little over a year ago and was
going to cancel my business class since I didn't need the static IPs
anymore, but they said I was on the old TWC rates. I just needed to
sign a 1 year contract (which is a no brainer... I **NEED** internet
access) and now I pay $70/mo and get 5 static IPs. Since it's business
class service, should anything go wrong, they can send out a guy within
24 hours... usually much, much, much sooner than that.<br>
<br>
I'm very happy with Comcast and highly recommend the business class
service!<br>

Or use Comcast Business class and get good speed, static ips, no
bandwidth limits and no packet shaping. It's like $70/mo with a 1
year contract. Totally worth it.
Chris,
What up/down do you get for $70/mo? Last time I checked it out it
was $120/mo. and the download rate was way below the standard
residential. Glad to hear it's improved.

I have 16/2 which I pay $52.00/month for and another $20 for a /28 of
static IPs.
