> Anyone notice the ridiculous speed increase in road runner recently? I haven’t ran a speed test in a while but I just downloaded a file a 3mb /sec and was like whoa. I then proceeded to run a speed test ([www.speakeasy.net/speedtest](http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest)) and found that road runner pulled down on average 23 mbit /sec which is up from 10. I am ecstatic! The upload is still poop slow at 1 mbit/sec but w/e.

ya i believe it, they upgrade the service as time goes on , usually without making a big public announcement about it…

Hate to bump an old thread…

I changed out my like 6 year old linksys wireless router that would crap out 2-3 times a day for a “buffalo wireless” router, and my speed increased like CRAZY. Im on a laptop, a good 50 feet away from the router, through a bunch of walls and on a different floor, and I got this:

[![http://www.speedtest.net/result/501269984.png](http://www.speedtest.net/result/501269984.png)](http://www.speedtest.net)

my old router maxed out about 4-5mb/sec

So I decided to hook the laptop up right to the router…

Makes me think about running a shitload of cat5 cable through the house…
