new speed coming ahead :]

[razorphreak900]

long time no post/been busy and such...

so today i got a letter bout new speed increase. sweet.

those with 7 mbps will have 10 mbps for free

and they will also offer up to 40mbps speeds! called lighting or something. not sure how that part works, it just says it will b available.

for 7 to 10mbps speeds, it will b on the 10th of December. not sure on 40mbps.

either way, after being with them since 05 and always a happy customer, i am glad to see they are upping their speed as they should for today's what should b average speeds.

was in ny, average speeds range from 20 to 40 or so mbps, with fios or cable vision...

well i am off for now...just wanted to share for those who did not know.

BH Pasco gave me 10 mbps for free over a year ago then with a new 2 year promo which I added the phone I was given 15 mbps. The tech did say not likely I would notice any difference. I didn't. I honestly can say I didn't notice a difference from 7 or to 15. I am also a very pleased customer as saved a huge amount dropping Verizon land line phone. So far all is well.

i didn't notice any major difference between 7 and 15.

Most websites load instantly on 7mbit so its likely anyone who is just a web surfer will notice any difference. Those who do a lot of downloading and other heavy use stuff really notice the difference.

Hmm... what about the upstream? Any difference there coming on the Turbo side?

I just signed up for BH Pasco for 'triple play' starting in January including 7mbps-I wonder if I will get the 10 automatically or will I have to ask prior to install? I am ALSO canceling my Verizon landline. Paul, Z-Hills

I agree as well, when doing normal everyday browsing 7 Mbps or 15 Mbps there is trully no difference...

when downloading that's where there is a difference, also when sharing with wireless network, another noticeable difference, especially on upload if you have 15 and or especially 20 Mbps with 2 Mbps up. wonder what upload 40 Mbps will offer.

I remember with same exact setup, when i had 7, ran great but had hiccups when 3 pc's were in used at the same time, but with 20 none of that is ever noticeable and is always super fast no matter what including online gaming on ps3-loading of videos and stuff is also an honest difference on sites... either way am happy-still wanted to share for those who make it a big deal haha.

according to the flyer i got on the mail, you do not need to do anything, it will just happen on the 10th, assuming all of tampa bay area will get this small free upgrade.
