I've been getting slow speeds lately, I have a 6mbit connection and sometimes when I'm browsing it only uses a few hundred kilobits as oppsed to it normally using 1 or 2 mbits (I have a speed meter on my computer that shows and logs all my bandwidth usage.) Its actually messing up my phone as well since its an internet phone. It breaks up when you talk to people and they only hear every other word. Sometimes when I;m using the net, the speed drops down to a few kbits then stops all together. Comcast sent out a technitian and they even changed a line outside that they said was getting old and corroded, but still having the problem. Its either my D-link taking a crap (which we run through 2 since we have the phone...dlink to linksys to all the computers,) or CHSI is capping me. :(
