After using it a bit, I see the broadband connection works well most of the time. During peak hours for internet use it slows down just like other net access services.

I'm using it now and it flys pretty well.

I signed up for a year of the broadband service just to keep Bill G. employed and in-the-guns. But, in a year the technology may increase the service speed also. It's much better than dial-up, but not a match for DSL or Cable.
