where are u checking your connection speed at. i also use cable and have also experianced well over 1mb according to mcaffee speddometer ..... again id like to know where your checking as im not totally sure thats a decent assumption to only go by the one ive seen ..... its told me at times over 2500kbps 2.5(mbps) which really sounds way to high for a cable connection. which makes me think its not correct.
