Re: man....I wish

Uh, the capping post may be valid, but your posting of " »[OOL] OOL Boost performance decrease when connected to router. " is basically a thread about you posting nonsense and everyone exposing your baseless claim as bunk.

Most soho routers can't handle the speeds Boost offers.

Re: man....I wish

So without dunking my head in a 100 page battle thread, is Boost capped or not? Last I'd read it wasn't?

This post sums it up best:

»Re: [OOL] OOL Boost performance decrease when connected to route

No, it's not capped with use of a router.

Cablevision has and does secretly cap upload speed on the basic broadband. The question of Boost capping is more complex. Many Boost users have reported being mysteriously secretly dropped back to the basic service then being capped.

Many? I think it was 3 and there are MANY, MANY that reported full upload without any issue.

There's no indication at all that there's anything malicious about what occurred to those couple of individuals. In fact, none of them ever came back to say it happened again once the contacted CV to get it immediately corrected.
