Squash please. Its simple. Overcap people.
Not quite. What about the people on DSL who are capped at 1.5Mbps and only get 800Kbps? Raising the cap to 100Mbps won't matter.

Same with cable.

Re: Yes

Well, DSL is crippled. And I could care less about it. Im not too worried about people who are too far away. Im worried about the 90% of people who are within the spec.

Getting MORE than promised!

I'm getting 10.8 mbs from Charter Cable! (on a 10mbs line). Who'da thunk Charter would rise from their debt to compete with Verizon's FiOS? It can happen!
