Who gives a shit what the average is? I am not going to want to know where they have good average speed. I am going to want to know where the fastest speed is offered at reasonable rates.

Chattanooga, Tennessee was #1 on real fastest speed a year ago.

Frankly, I'm shocked Texas isn't lower on the list. I mean, after riding across it for a day there are more miles and miles of nothing there than most anywhere else in this country. Except, Alaska

Honestly, When I'm using my Macbook, I use more DL than Upload...The only real thing I could ever see if affecting is when I'm using my Xbox...

But I pull host consistently and never have any issues with my gameplay online.

I was pulling close to what your at when I had Fios..and that was there basic package.

LOL @ your download speed and ping time.

Fuck uploading, 90% of what I do is coming down the pipe.

Basic Verizon Fios


Good to see that RI has such high speeds because when you are unemployed you'll need the fastest speed possible to hunt for jobs in other states

You would hope Fios is fast, considering it's wired (fiber optic). But for a wireless card or mifi device to get the speeds I'm getting is pretty impressive imo.

But you would expect Comcast to be way faster than my wireless card ----- and it isn't.
