Not bad for a small island in the middle of the Pacific. That's what I keep telling myself anyways. I miss mainland internet speeds sometimes though.

What kind of speeds/ping do you get to mainland speed test servers?

Would it even be possible to just call up a cable company and say "I want a cable modem for myself in this house that has already has a DSL line, even if it's for one device?"

Yes, that's no problem at all.

So, the Xfinity guy actually did a great job of setting up a new wire. It's amazing to me that I can now watch streaming 1080p while downloading a 40MB steam game in under 30 minutes.

I'm amazed that you got them out for an install so quickly.
