Provisioning?

With the 4 broadband plans offered, what is the actual provisioned line speed? I know that actual speeds you get are distance dependent, but I'm just looking at provisioning for research.

6000/384
3000/384
1500/384
256/128

Thanks!

Here is Orange Springs, FL I can get residential and most places now can get up to 3m service

512/256
1536/385
3072/385

Other places get 6m which is

6144/384 at least in all places that offer 6m
7200/384 if they feel they have the bandwidth to feed it.

------------

There are also business plans.

Thanks bud!

How do they determine how much overhead is needed. Is this strictly by distance or via feedback from the customer? I'm assuming they try "normal" provisioning for your distance and then adjust if needed.

No adjustment I am aware of for distance or line condition.

You get the standard provisioning regardless (I believe). I have seen people report in here they had 3m service but their S/N was just on the edge or Attn just on the edge. WS suggested they lower to 1.5 which did indeed fix dropped packets. And if it is that close and bad you won't really notice a decrease in anything but your bill.

Many here have asked that were too far out to be dropped a little but not all the way down to the next tier to compensate for distance, but I don't believe they do that.

If Shawdow chimes in he knows the inside scoop.
