PCKing Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 They are raising speed of both DL and UL for free... Im not sure what their previous DL cap was but I broke 2 megs many times. The UL was capped at 128k which will be doubled... Here is the email I received: Dear Adelphia Power Link Customer, We value your business and understand that many of you have an increasing appetite for online content, email and all the benefits of our high-speed internet service. We were pleased to announce last week that we will be increasing the speeds available to our Power Link high-speed internet customers to up to 3 megabytes-per-second downloads and up to 256 kilobytes-per-second uploads. Your Power Link pricing will not change as a result of this service enhancement! To facilitate this exciting change for Power Link customers, there are some upgrades required in the Adelphia network. While we do not expect these changes to have an impact to the vast majority of customers, some customers may be impacted. If you are impacted, you may experience higher than normal wait times on the Technical Support line. We apologize for any inconvenience. We expect to have the network upgrades complete by October 15, 2003. Thank you in advance for your patience while we work to deliver this exciting service enhancement. Sincerely, Adelphia Communications Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital.K Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Cable just recently became available here in my area and the prices are right, so I may give Adelphia a look see. This is just an added bonus increasing ul/dl for free I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redestium Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 3 megabytes-per-second downloads It's lovely how even the ISPs can't use the right designation. :laugh: :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaisinCain Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 When I was on Adelphia (from Dec. 2002-Apr. 2003), I was never below 3MBPS & my upload was anywhere from 70-128K. If you can deal with the occasional probs, Adelphia is the way to go. You can get their package deal (EVERY digital cable channel & Powerlink) for like $100 :)!!
