[TriLUG] TWC speeds

Actually, I think this might have been it: 

Rather than maxing out at the normal 10 megabits per second, the new
Powerboost system ups the limit to 16MB. Powerboosts only last a few
seconds, and users won't get them when network traffic is heavy, but TWC
says the difference will be immediately noticeable.

16mbps?  Are you sure about that?  I've got RR Turbo in Durham and I
think it was upped from 8 (when I signed up a year ago) to 10 a month or
two ago...not 16...unless that's another recent increase (which of
course would make me quite happy).

I got something in the mail that said my RR Turbo was upped to 16mb.
I'll look for the e-mail they sent me and forward it on.

I swear I searched the archives and found nothing useful.

I've been using TWC Lite, which is now too slow.  I can move to Road
Runner High Speed Online (up to 7 Mbps) for $40 or to TWC Business Class
5.0 Mbps x 768 Kbps for $40.

Anyone recommend a direction?  Anyone know an average up speed for the
RR residential?  Is Business Class better in some way than residential
class?

Thanks,
Jim
