Cox cable users beware.

I'm not entirely sure what the relationship between Roadrunner and Cox is, but for sure there is one. Microsoft have had a 10% equity investment in Roadrunner since 1998. They may well be watching network usage.

OK... I'm paranoid, I know, but perhaps sometimes you really are being followed.

Holy crap. I'm the only one with less then 56K? I suspect that all the people that said 56k are exaggerating. No one with a 56k modem actually connects at 56k. I get 52.

I used to always get 46 or 48k. Now I'm getting 52k every time *knocks on wood*. It makes a BIG difference.
