The following is from the Tampa Bay Bright House site:
"Residential customers of Road Runner High Speed Online and customers
using other ISPs provided by Bright House Networks – including
EarthLink High Speed Internet, Internet Junction and AOL for Broadband
– will enjoy a maximum download speed of 7 megabits per second (mbps).
The maximum upload speed, the rate at which e-mail and digital files
can be sent, is 512 kilobits per second (kbps). Those speeds are
increasing from maximum downloads of 5 mbps and uploads of 384 kbps."
If you have one of their combo packages, you have the option ot
upgrading to either 10 or 15 Mbps for a small additional charge
(something like $10 more per month).
