My upstream bounces from as little as 12kbits to 30kbits. broadcasting the show uses 24kbits. You do the math

If my upstream isn't fixed I refuse to do a show, it would be a pain for me and the listeners (you) to hear skipping and buffering every 15 sec or so...
I'll be pushing my cable co to fix this tough and as soon as I get the upstream I should have I'll be back in full and skippage free hopefully..
Odd thing is the downstream is spot on as far as the contract with the cable co goes. weird.
