  1. Just so you all know, there is a huge difference in MB/s and Mbps... 1 MB/s = 8 Mbps. :)

    Both tests done like this:
    1. modem
    *cable*
    2. router extenderish thingy
    *wireless*
    3. other extender
    *cable*
    4. PC

  3. That isn't always an option. I know, because there was no way I was convincing my parents to let me run a wire from the router across the house into my room :p

    This is pretty standard for me, sometimes upload gets up to around 20. I'm content

  13. Raleigh NC is a "top" city in the country that gets lots of things first.... We are being eyed by multiple people to bring Fiber to the Home (Google, ATT and a local company noones heard of).

    So I do have 3 potential companies to give me gigabit speeds eventually =P
