 Zoom... is that a link to cheap internetz or your title for your down/up?
At least your up is pretty decent. Mine is 3MB down, but still only 300 up... according to my provider I can upgrade to their 6MB/600 service within a few months here.

Not sure why the underline appeared, but I fixed it. Yeah, I'm happy that my UP is what it is. So far, the Comcast 'Economy Internet' has worked well for me. $24.95/mo.

Had a Comcast guy over today putting some new coax cable from the street to the house. My new local speed.
Not as good to Texas though.
Not bad for $30 bucks a month.

Ya know, I think that upload is because of Comcast's Speed Boost thing. I doubt it's always that fast.

Ah, yes:
"PowerBoost burst is for the first 10 MB of a file. Service then reverts to provisioned speed."
Their page didn't specify if it applies to both UL and DL, though.

Sounds like contention to me, do you notice it at specific times of the day like evenings?
My Latest speedtest
Pretty mediocre, but costs me nothing so I cant complain
