Speed upgrade

We were on a 1Mbps broadband plan until recently in my apartment.
Looking at our bills over the past few months and talking to people
around us, my roommate and I decided that we need to renegotiate our
plan with the ISP. So he called the ISP this morning and they bumped us
up to an 8Mbps plan for the same price per month!! Whoop!

With a 54Mbps WiFi connection, my laptop just reported an average
download speed of 5Mbps and an upload speed of 500Kbps. Not bad at all
for a shared connection and the router being in another room. :D
