Thread: Suddenlink 20mb?

Does anybody have this service in the Bryan/College Station area? I am curious to see how much actual throughput I would get. I am especially interested in torrent speeds.

My wife and I just upgraded to the 20/1 package through SuddenLink in B/CS. After being lied to on the phone by two different people who assured us that our cable modem would work, we had to purchase a new $85 DOCSIS 3 modem from them, but that's not that big of a deal I guess.

Real world, the speeds are good. Speedtest.net shows us at 16.7mbit down / .87mbit up at 8:00 pm. Last night, I downloaded CentOS 5.3 and Ubuntu 9.04 ISOs. My Linux box, going through an HP 100mbit switch into our Linsys WRT54G and through the modem was averaging 2.8MB/sec real download.

So far, we have been pretty satisfied with it.
