Heh! Good chance I worked there if that's the case (20 years in AF Communications).
Should try recabling a few server farms for grins and giggles, without any loss of service.

The Commander of that squadron didn't appreciate me asking if he would also expect an F-16 to be flying while the Ground Crew was overhauling the engine.
I'ts GOOD to be a silly-vilian.

Hoss, I got to think that Verizon was right. It is in their best interest to hook it up properly, or they risk not being able to meet their posted speeds. Also, just because you have 5mbps server, you may never reach 5mbps. There is a certain amount of overhead that TCP/IP will take away from your bandwidth, which is normal. I have the 15mpbs server and I generally run in the 13.8 - 14.2 mbps range. Once you get up to this speeds, it is hard to find a speed test server that will give accurate speeds. Once you get over 5mbps, accurate readings will be hard to find.
