Re: Don't Judge Comcast Too Harshly...

Good to know. Is there generally an ACK/NAK mechanism that would generate small packets?
The major source of small packets is online gaming!

Bad assumption on my part. Adelphia was DOCSIS 2 while the rest of Comcast is 1.1. I assumed that DOCSIS 2 would mean more pooled bandwidth, but I guess it just means "more pools."

Thanks for picking that up.
No worries. DOCSIS 2 doesn't mean anything for downstream bandwidth at all, dual or more downstreams can be done with DOCSIS 1.0 / 1.1 just as well, 2 is purely upstream enhancements.
