| [OOL] Slight bump in speeds?
Well I'm out on the North Fork of LI, and we had been without cable for all day this past Wednesday (due to rains) and now that we're finally back on, I've noticed a slight bump of speed with my modem. Unfortunately I only get 1.2MBps using the old OOL ftp speed test, but here's what my DLINK DCM-202 is reporting:
Class ID 1
Max Downstream Rate (bps) 16500000
Max Upstream Rate (bps) 2000000
So does that mean I am now 16.5/2? I was almost positive that before this outage, the downstream was 15000000. |

The best way to find out what you are provisioned at is to ask the modem by running DOCSDIAG/ This will report what your provisioned up and down speeds are set to. |

It does indeed look like they have raised the cap on the 15/2 to 16.5/2:
At least that will bring results closer to their advertised rates, provided the connection is solid to begin with. |

I don't think the line down my road is the best of quality (underground, installed mid-1980s and not touched since), but the line to the house was just replaced last summer. Seemed download speed dropped to 1.20MB/sec and hasn't moved since.
I was messing with the OOL FTP test and got 1.20 MB/sec, but obviously that's still a little ways under the cap. So, the bump did nothing for me.
FYI, the phone line was layed at the same time, and we have a noticeable hum on it, but Verizon doesn't want to do anything about it...so I would imagine the line quality down the road could be better. |

These settings are not automatic but need to be reloaded at handshake time. I am not saying that they are not going to roll out a higher BOOST Speed but only that when/if they do you will not see it without doing a reboot. The only time that I think it will automatic update is when they push new microcode, do a node split or cap you (all of what trigger a automatic reboot and thus a reload of the settings). |

said by ace41690 :mine havent changed yet. Try rebooting the Modem (needed to get new/updated settings). This looks like there was something to that 15/5 speedbump although it is improved download not improved upload speeds. |

Im not in FIOS territory, and the change required a reboot -- similar to the original poster though, I'm on the east end of LI. |

This is good news. Since i get 13.5 now, a raise in the cap by 1.5 means that i will actually get a full 15mbps. Cool! |

said by vrocar :If it happened to one it'll happen to all, soon. Roll-outs take time. We'll know when the roll-out is supposedly completed when CV updates the Products Speed Listing on their Web Site, issues a press release, and/or updates the Speed Text page (although it took a long time for them to fix that page to actually show a 5Mbs bar [as opposed to a 2Mbs bar] for BOOST users).
Do not forget that even after your area/node has been speed-bumped that, unless they force a reboot, you will need to manually reboot by downing a power-off/power-on of the modem to get the new speed settings downloaded into the modem. |

So perhaps my friend was right after all and there are further bumps in speed coming.. .
I'm still 30/5 FWIW, and I'm in a FIOS territory as well now, Roslyn. |

Perhaps. Or they're testing something? I may be hallucinating but my connection seems to be more smooth.
