I know they changed the upstream from 128kb/sec to 256kb/sec , but think they did that some time ago. Either your neighborhood is full of internet junkies with cable, or something is screwed up on your network.

What is fucked up is the cable company. Apparently they can set the speed where they want it. They probably want to set up speed tiers in order to allow a tiered pricing structure.
