Comcast residential down is fast enough, up is almost enough.  I pay about
$50/m for it, willing to pay another $15 or so to get more upload speed.
But now I need to figure out what I currently have and what the 2 option
will give me.  I think I will create a little python app that will generate
the traffic I care about and see if I can get ya'll to run it.  I may even
turn this into a project that graphs it over a few min so we can see what
the throttling profile looks like.
I keep wanting to do this anyway, so now I have .1 more motivation.
