Well, I'm sitting here this morning and I get a new email from Comcast; they've upgraded their upload speeds...
Here's an excerpt:
Upload your photos and other files even faster!
Now Comcast HighSpeed Internet has doubled your upload speeds at no additional cost!
Enjoy upload speeds up to twice as fast!
Upload files like photos in a flash
Nothing to Install
Preformance service customers are now provisioned with upload speeds of up to 1 Mbps
Preformance Plus customers are now provisioned with upload speeds of up to 2 Mbps
It's another example of how Comcast HighSpeed internet continues to upgrade our advanced fiberoptic network to make our blazing-fast service even faster!
To make sure you're able to enjoy your speed increase immediately you may need to power cycle your equipment.
Well, I wander over and reset the power to see what happens... Well, instead of a ~40kB/s upload I'm now pulling ~60-80kB/s...
Wow, comcast actually did something entertaining to help my seed ratio
