*When comparing download speeds with a traditional 28.8k analog modem. Actual speeds will vary, and are often less than the maximum possible. Upload and download speeds
are affected by several factors including, but not limited to: network traffic and services offered by your cable operator or broadband service provider, computer equipment, type
of server, number of connections to server, and availability of Internet router(s).
