> Anyhow at the risk of this turning into a multi page rant about comcast I'll cut back to upload speed. I see it as upload is for creation and download is for consumption. What do the cable companies want people to be doing?
Fun fact: Comcast does not even show you the upload speed by default on their speed test page. You have to click an extra "details" section for it to run the upload part of the test. Otherwise you just see the single download number.
- katbyte 6y agoThat’s what Shaw here in Canada does, even gigabit cable was also limited to 25 up until recently where it was bumped up to 100
- DrewRWx 6y agoTo be fair, you also have to click on "details" on https://fast.com/ https://fast.com/ to see your upload. Other than aesthetics I can't think of why they would want to hide it.
- toast0 6y agoFast.com is Netflix, which doesn't have meaningful uploads, so they don't care.
