Ah, I got a new cable modem today and am finally taking full advantage of my cable internet. I don't think 14 mbps down is too bad considering its "just" cable:
Before with the D-Link modem I was peaking at about 6mbps down and 600kbps up (DOCSIS 1.0). This Motorola modem is compatible with the DOCSIS 1.1 protocol Comcast uses out here, and goes much faster

Oh it totally depends on the server used. My fastest server is Scottsdale, AZ. Albuquerque is slower, despite the fact that it's geographically closer.
I'm just happy that I got faster internet. I was starting to get very frustrated with my old modem, it kept dropping connection and wasn't going as fast as I felt I should be going... for $60/mo anyway.

I had that way back when, then everyone else got cable modems and of course the speed drops.

just because I feel left out, this is from the server in Atlanta, geographically, well right on top of me.
I have comcast also.
