Neat site for measuring speed. Here's my Cox connection. Glad I don't have to go back to "ugh" yet.

Your download speed : 1735503 bps, or 1735 kbps.
Browsers would show : about a 211.8 k/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 283486 bps, or 283 kbps.
Your connection rocks .. above the 1mbit barrier!

My speed was the same as yours! Thanks for the link. I feel sorry for everyone else on the dial-up connections, though.

Obviously, Laz, cable modems in the Phoenix area have not been affected yet.
