Does Verizon have anything faster then Speeds up to 150 Mbps/ 35 Mbps?

For what I'm trying to run I need something that can upload at about 50Mbps to 100Mbps and would like to know if verizon can do this. Also is there any way if i got the Speeds up to 150 Mbps/ 35 Mbps Plan they could maybe take 50 off the download or even 75 and add 25-50 to the upload? Or if I pay for two or three of the 150 Mbps/ 35 Mbps Plans can they give me 105 Upload? Thanks.

Unfortunately, nothing like this exists for residential plans and rates are non-negotiable.

If you want a higher provisioned symmetrical connection, you're going to have to go to a business plan.

Out of curiousity, what are you planning on doing that needs that much upload capacity?

The actual upload speed provision on the 150 megabit plan is actually already ~75 megabits. Don't believe me check out my network graphs:

If 75 meg up isn't enough and you really have the money then you could get two 150/35 connections (150/75) and bond them for 300/150 via VPN bonding. This would require a box on a data center near by on a 1gbit connection and a decently high end server to do the VPN bonding (my atom 1.6 Ghz CPU maxes out at around 105-110 mbits per core with VPN traffic).

You would want something as close as possible to you as the lower the hops/latency the better VPN bonding works. I did VPN bonding when I had two 35/35 connections in order to get a single 70/70 pipe.

Load balacing two would be a lot easier than bonding though if you don't need to push that much traffic with a single connection. Also the colo or dedicated server to do the VPN bonding would likely be a lot of money as well because of the bandwidth usage (since all your traffic over the bonded link would have to go through the dedicated/colo'd server).

You can see some speed tests and other performance tests I did with my 150/35 connection here:

They actually installed this monster ONT at my place:

It supports 8 phone lines and 2 data lines, heh.
