Heya Gary! Hope all is well. I live around canyon over by Johnnies Market. and on a good day might get 10-13 of the 25 MBS. Which isbad. Backups, updates, and some games are significantly larger than 25mbs a second down, and the modem speed up is ridiculous for what comcast charges. It's especially ridiculous its allowed as a thing at all.
