Around 20 with the premier, but with the "power boost" I've seen it at 30 at a customers home.

http://www.speedtest.net/ can somebody with fios do one of those?

also, what's the deal with the install wait? does anybody have a hookup?

the website order doesnt allow you to get any hd-dvr boxes cause they're out of stock... any way around that?

let me know if anybody has first hand experience recently.
