Since we're talking broadband, it depends on where you are.  Where I live, we
have been able to get cable internet access for 2 1/2 years. I have noticed
that the network slowed down about a year ago, so I would guess that the
network has reached consumer saturation.

It seems after connecting last night, I observed faster speeds (no empirical
evidence).  I have friends in newer networks (1 year or less availability) and
they had faster download speeds than I did on @home network.

Does anyone have a good test suite to measure network performance?
