My upload speed also doubled from about 5 or 6 to 12Mb/s. In Kingston, using old black Arris 1672G.
Thanks for the heads up.
Ran two test I got the upload speed bump. I still have the black arris modem.
Did this speedtest at the Old Harbour location.
Indeed, upload speeds are improving.

100Mb/15Mb currently. Upgraded from 5Mb upload. Better now - appreciated. Not "happy" or "elated" when other countries have symmetric 100Mb or 500Mb. But. It's a step in the right direction. Thanks to COVID and streaming of classrooms I assume.
*EDIT*
Realized I didn't update my QoS settings in my router/firewall. So now I'm getting about 22Mb up with bursts up to about 30Mb.

Knowing the solution doesn't mean knowing the method. Yet answering correctly and regurgitation are considered "learning" and "knowledge".
I agree with you on the technology bit; some are getting symmetric speeds on fibre -- here in Jamaica, in fact (if you're one of the lucky few who have fibre from FLOW & have symmetric 150/150 on their top-end bundles). I will say that this recent upgrade brings us to the level of residential uplink capacity of the likes of Virgin Media UK, which tops out at 50 Mbit/s on their Gig1 service. I do also expect a good speed bump on the download coming very soon too. FLOW will soon roll out LLA's Total TV product, which is IPTV based & streams over WiFi (or Ethernet if you have it). I see burst speeds hitting up to 700 Mbit/s on the download quite regularly; not a sight I was seeing earlier this year.
