I got my cable modem today after the STB was carried away. I'm really happy with the speeds.

1st 512K took 422 ms = 1213.3 KB/sec, approx 9998 Kbps, 9.76 Mbps
2nd 512K took 437 ms = 1171.6 KB/sec, approx 9654 Kbps, 9.43 Mbps
3rd 512K took 438 ms = 1169 KB/sec, approx 9633 Kbps, 9.41 Mbps
4th 512K took 421 ms = 1216.2 KB/sec, approx 10021 Kbps, 9.79 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 9827 Kbps, 9.6 Mbps

Kaspersky's Web Anti-Virus component can affect speed and it eats up way too much CPU power if you allow it to scan the NNTP port and download at 10mbit speeds.
