Qwest is horrible.
I tried them once.. A 7 MEG downstream and the best I think I ever got was like 1 and 1/2..... Poorly advertised.. Not to mention the latency(PING) was horrible too..
I was seeing 100+++ ms ping/latency. Totally horrible service to go through if your into any sort of online gaming. Not to mention I was on a trial and took the modem back before I was stuck on a contract & they than tried to charge me (even though I brought the stuff back to the Qwest kiosk in the mall, assuming it was all taken care of)
Cable one is easily >> Qwest...
To be honest, I have yet to come across anything better here locally than cable one, but there could be better options.. Just haven't come across it yet.
Downstream & Latency is good for Cable one.
I think I am 3-5 Meg down stream and getting to nearly 6 meg downstream connecting to a wireless modem on a laptop with programs running like MSN/etc.

I wonder what NDSU's was... cuz when I was there u pretty much click download on anything and it was done in no time... I remember back when napster first started it took me 35 min to download one song... needless to say that was the only one i ever did... it was like 24K... we have "high speed" now and it's barely any faster..

My house.
I installed an OC3 at GoMoorhead in May. My laptop plugged directly into a router connected to an OC3 to Qwest. 155mbit/second down..

You are lucky, when I tried qwest, 702 and ideaone, the fastest I ever got was about what Jason posted up....absolutely gay. Then I went back to cableone and haven't looked back.

WTF i just re did it and gayness
I know exactly why your at that now...if you read your ISP's fine print you have a cap of what you can upload and download in a 24 hr period. If you go over, they throttle your speed down. Ie. have a 3mb speed, go over, they will throttle you to 1mb for the rest of the day. So if you wanna download a shit ton, do it at night so you won't be throttled for the rest of the day.
