Shit man, I got this new cable modem from a new company and I tested the connection on a website (www.bandwidthplace.com) and it said my cable modem is running at 2.5 megabits/second and this thing downloads over 200 kilobytes/sec...geezus crist this is FAST!
Oh, and it is supposed to be only a 1.5 megabit/second modem.
