I'm on their cheapest plan (not including economy plans) and I get this for my internet speed:

Now keep in mind im on wifi so im not sure if im being limited by my crappy wifi.

I don't know why do people hate Comcast? Could it be that I kept their service and moved to a new address, had the old equipment installed here and then they charged me $545 for a 'non returned equipment' charge? Or maybe it's that they said they had disconnected the old service on the 23rd, yet I was still using the internet there on the 27th? Or the fact that when calling them up to inform them this they resolutely refuse to acknowledge that and keep telling me "Yes sir, that service was disconnected on the 23rd". I could go on there's so many other issues but the long and short of it is, people hate Comcast because they are a pain in the ass to deal with and as mutelight pointed out the first 5megs or something of a download is covered by powerboost so the speed test is all but useless.
