PC Magazine names Insight as America's fifth fastest ISP

The Fastest ISPs in the Nation [PC Magazine]

PC Magazine has completed a study and compiled a list of the 15 fastest ISPs in the U.S. Using Speedtest.net results from a number of users, the magazine looked at downstream and upstream speeds and created a speed index to rank the ISPs. 

The top three spots in the index ranking for broadband speed all went to cable providers - Cox Communications, Comcast Cable, and Charter Communications – all three with an average download speed over 18 Mbps and an average overall PC Magazine weighted speed over 15 Mbps.

Verizon took fourth place with the combined speeds of Verizon's FiOS fiber product with its DSL product. 

I'm pleased to report that Insight was next in line - the fifth fastest ISP in the country - with an adjusted speed of 12.70 Mbps and 15.43 Mbps downstream.

Because of our planned merger with Time Warner Cable (Road Runner), the article made special mention of how remarkably close Insight and Time Warner Cable rated.  TWC scored 12.46 Mbps adjusted and 15.24 Mbps downstream.

2 weeks ago I bought a new coemtupr, which upgraded me from XP to Windows 7 64-bit.Initially my broadband was fine but then started to go haywire, causing me to tear out what little hair I have left. Following all the threads about problems with wireless routers and Windows 7, it turns out that my router is supposedly fully compatible with Windows 7.This morning a search has come up with your site, where other local users are experiencing this same total inconsistency from second to second. One minute I have 3.7Mbps, about the best I ever get, and the next perhaps only 0.4Mps. The worst of it is that when the signal drops off completely, this new coemtupr requires me to shut it down, re-boot the router and only fire up the coemtupr again once the internet signal has fully returned.I am on The Ballard Estate using TalkTalk. Since other users sound as though they are with BT, it seems that the problem is indeed with the quality of the telephone signal rather than our providers. This estate is also probably out on a far limb of the exchange network.David Drury

Since the team only six-pin FireWire adapter and I hate that I have purchased this cable cable.El exactly what they should do what me the contents of mini DV cassettes can be transferred to my computer, and I) can control the cmeraa from Linux (through cinema. I am very satisfied with the product.

let's hope it stays that way once insight is absorbed but some other crappy company.
