How much bandwidth does a 720p vid from netflix use?
Even a 720 vid from YouTube will buffer / run for as long as i can stand it.

I have a 3mb connection which nets about 2.5 on bandwidth testing.

I'm near enough the end of the pipe that in order to get faster speeds, I'd need to go cable or the OTHER pirates at U-verse.

You can have a check at some websites.

Checked on a number of sites. All around 2.5meg, net.

I can't get anyone to discuss either SNR or SNR Margin which I read from my DSL modem page.

They will SELL me anything without warranty. One warning, though is that DSLExtreme won't sell me a 6meg DSL service....probably because they know something which my current carrier won't tell me.
My brother has a 4g modem for his laptop. The darn thing hooks up at about 5meg, but has download limit plans. We are in a place where even cell phone service can be dicey.
