- **Road Runner Standard - 10Mbps x 1Mbps**
- **Road Runner Turbo - 15Mbps x 2Mbps**
Am I going to notice a big difference??? has any upgraded from standard to turbo and been impressed?

If you just surf the web, and don’t really upload then no. If you like constantly uploading large files, or plan on pulling down large amounts of files of huge sizes then yes.

Well for me its worth it just for the DOUBLED upload. I upload things often, and 2Mbps is almost usefull, 1 is pathetic.
But you wont notice much, since its only 50% more download, and if youre running wireless B or G, its very unlikely you can benefit from it.
The latency is the same, so its still going to be slow loading pages, just downloading large files may be faster.
$10 more a month… $120 / year… Is it worth it to you for a marginal improvement?

i dont have too much of a problem DLing or ULing. I want websites to load faster. If its not going to help that then screw it.

I downgraded from basic to the cheap one… I don’t care about download speed as long as the latency is the same. I can still download an episode of top gear in about an hour so that’s plenty fast enough for me. I’m getting about 300 down and 60 up.

If you upload a lot, yes. Most connections won’t be clean enough to notice a huge boost in performance though. You’ll be able to run more simultaneous connections at the same speed though.
