Comcast Speed Upgrades.....Yet?

Why, thinking about jumping from Cox to Comcast. We have a

Just restarted my cable modem here in Dallas Texas. Symbol Rate 3.200 Msym/s :(

I'm on Comcast now!. Pay no attention to my return address. I used to be Cox.

I was just upgraded to 256 QAM but am not seeing a speed increase yet.

symbol rate is something different. it wont say the caps in most motorola modems. I think the linksys modems and possibly dlink say.

Ok after rebooting my cable modem I'm seeing a slight increase in speeds. Down doesn't seem much yet (2950, but it's been close to this for a while now) but uploads are definately at 384(or above 256 anyway) now.

Restarted my cable modem. Symbol Rate did not change 3.200 Msym/s Speed did improve.

Baltimore, Annapolis and the Eastern Shore of Maryland were upgraded late last week.
