Yeah, I have a 3000/300 connection...but my downloads at max run at a whopping 200k/sec. I havent seen them over that.

That was the same speed as when I had 1500/256.

Pings in games are no different, I used DSL reports and it said my connection was only at 2500/290 something.

I am really sick of the crap cableone gives me.

Could this be because I am on a wireless router? Keep in mind that my parents pc downloads about the same speed...but sometimes about 300 k/sec.

Also, my cable modem plan says that I can have a max of 3 CPE's connected. Does this mean that I can use my own cable modem on my computer? Or does it mean only routers?
