@ALWAYS42O TWC and many other cable ISPs are notorious for putting a stupid cap on the upload speed. I'm sure if they wanted to they could make it 50mbps symmetric.

I have the road runner 30Mbps and it works great! It's not a ton faster than the Turbo in terms of download rate, but I get 5Mbps upload rate like the 50Mbps plan does. Also, I pay only $50 vs $100 for the 50Mbps or $40 for turbo.
If you want to upgrade your speed from turbo but don't want to pay 100, the 30Mbps is a great option.
Also, you don't have to pay the extra for wifi, just log into your router and click "restore wireless defaults" and it will work.

Does anyone know if Time Warner's wireless routers have a co-axle cable port? Not sure if I spelled that one right.

I am just about to upgrade to wideband from turbo. I can't fucking wait tbh. Turbo isn't enough for my houses needs, to supply my desktop, iPhone, xbox, and a laptop with the bandwidth they need.

@makaveliarts That was the major reason I upgraded as well. There's 4 people including me that really use the internet & when we were all on at the same time on turbo it was painfully slow.

@1ComputerSavvyGuy I also can't wait to upgrade, sometimes we have 20 people using a turbo connection at the same time, and even with QoS, it is extremely slow. I wish FiOS was where I live so I could have 150mbps

@macprorocks I hope you're not referring to Verizon FIOS. Verizon just made a deal with several cable companies. Verizon will be getting wireless spectrum the cable companies own collectively & for it Verizon will be offering the cable companies cable service. There is a good chance FIOS won't be rolled out anymore. Check this DSLReport article fore more info . tinyurl . com / dynrxz6
