Anyone see the new At&T cable commercial with some "Ultra" service?
I saw a commercial earlier today where At&T is now advertising different plans for cable modems. I looked on their site but there is nothing there. Any one have any info on this? I'd like it if they had a plan that increased the upload speed and removed port blocks so I could run servers on it, but I doubt thats an option.

that wouldn't be a bad deal. and you can host a webserver or dns server on cable. all ya have to do is set up a router to do it. it didn't mention the upload speeds. 384k wouldn't be too bad.. thats about 35-40k uploads. plus that isn't much more than i'm paying now with 5 static ips.. and if they threw the ips in with it... i'd be the first to have it!

Unless they have a 512 bps or better upload, its useless to me. But I bet they wont increase the upload speeds. I hope they prove me wrong.
And if its anything like the current setup, your download speed will be horrible if you are uploading at the same time. Thats not a good situation when running a busy server. I wish someone would make really high speed connections affordable, like 2mbs both directions or better. Chris |

The colo prices I have been quoted is like $600-800/mo for a 1MB connection in 1/2 rack. I currently pay $200 for a 1.1MB. Unless you know of some real cheap colos with no bandwidth restrictions, gonna have to stay with the $200/month.
