I upload a lot of video so that should help greatly! 2000 k/sec up! That means I can upload 1 GB files in about 8 min! :p

Great for you SUBMAN1, yet unfortunatelly you can't compare to my monster 20Mbs download/upload optic connection!

MUAHAHAHA!!! :rotfl:

Just kidding. I'm glad you have a fast connection. I can't imagine living any slower. (Well, the truth is that it's hard to find sites that have servers this fast, so a lot of it goes to waste).

Thats very nice.
I was once on a FIOS service although with only 10 Mbps full duplex.
The only downside was that we had private ip.
The public ip was something like 4 € per day (plus the cost of triple pay internet-tv-phone 80 € per month).

Now I have a 12Mbps/1Mbps Adsl2+ connection with public ip at 40 € per month not bad at all. I still miss though the 10Mbps upload capacity.
