said by daslog  :I was thinking the same thing. As a Comcast customer, what's the point in giving me more bandwidth if I'm not allowed to use it? So you spend less seconds waiting between the content you view. Allows for higher bursts. And lets you get done with ur online stuff faster since there is a limit to how much online stuff u can do per month (caps lol). |

Some people have received the letter of death for as little as 30 gigs uploaded.

100GB was a joke (sarcasim involved).. Mainly because comcast bases the number off of how much bandwidth the headend sees used... so it could be 100 could be 200, could be 300 all depending on how much usage your network gets in your area hasnt been 100 yet, but if more people have more speed, that may be obtainable |
