The good feelings associated with helping someone out? :)

I'm likely starting a company and needed some info on "generic" bandwidth available to consumers in prime time.

AT&T DSL

Suburban Chicago
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

This is AT&T DSL at ~7pm CDT . . . the version I have is supposed to be good for 1.5 / .384. Location is a suburb just out of Austin, TX.



Not happy with DSL's rising cost, but the only local alternative is RoadRunner from Time Warner, and the cable company has its own issues.

I have a little better connection at work . . . but the proxy has some nannyware that limits access. This was in Austin around 8 AM.
