Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Internet Slowbies - Queries for Gurus

And that's on a cable modem!!!

However, I do get 11Mbits up AND down at my Utah house (fiber connection),
so because of its crazy upload speed we use that as one of our offsite
backup server locations for CheatCodes and BidNip. If we ever need to grab
backup data, it's nice to have a big upload pipe to grab the data fast.
