kudos:1 | Capped by modem? I though that speeds were capped by the modem?
I guess that we'll all get higher caps and bandwidth will be managed somewhere else?
Managed QoS? |

| Bandwidth is not a QoS. Traffic shaping is different from packet labeling for prioritizing. |

| Essentially unused in most cable deployments now. All speed-related configurations are at the CMTS headend now -- they control it, not your modem. |

QoS is Quality of Service, not Quantity of Service.  |

Since they are antipeers or antisharing upload will remain the same however.
12.0/384
16.0/768
This will boost your download speed @ 4.99 bucks for 24hrs period
if you need it for 10 days, 50 bucks is good money for Comcast revenues
FIOS will probably have to boost their cap after this! woohoo!
$$$
Don'tyou just love capitalism? I mean. corporalism.
