It seems to have become less common for providers to advertise upload speeds. I was helping a friend pick a plan from a non-comcast cable provider, and she had to call to ask about the upload speeds, as the information was not on the web.
- lazide 6y agoIt’s because they’re universally terrible, and don’t help sell the product. If it’s slow uploading photos, support can sell them on upgrading to the next highest plan to ‘go faster’ - congrats your uplink speed is now 5mbs instead of 3mbs isn’t as impressive as ‘we upgraded you to 1gig!’. The only folks who know to ask and care about upload speeds already know Comcast is terrible, and are going to try to figure any way to avoid them.
