alright i plan on getting cox internet and was wounder if their is a BIG diffence between

Premier Package - Up to 9Mbps download and 1Mbps upload speed
and
Preferred Package - Up to 6Mbps download and 512Kbps upload speed

of course the premier package would be better but it is really that big of a diff to spend $24 more?

thanks
:)

If there isnt any other issues to slow you down, such as the wires being messed up, computer adware and such, then yes its definitely worth it. A 3MB difference is 3000kb. And your upload speed is basically twice as fast. Its awesome.

Right now i have 9-11mb download speed, i dont know what my upload speed is :)
