| | Whole neigborhood will slow to a crawl. I wonder how SLOW the ENTIRE neighborhood will be when people start using such bandwidth and we know Comcast rarely upgrades their capacity. Been told, Comcast will "shape" the traffic according to the "tier". Higher "tiers" gets preferred/faster/higher priority for their traffic/gaming/downloading experience. You pay more, you get better "QoS". What a BUMMER!! | |

| Re: Whole neigborhood will slow to a crawl. They do own some decent back bone routes and I seen them offering quiet bids on some dark fiber links.
I think in this area they can just shuffle bandwidth to a less used or cheaper pop and upgrade there. As far as peering capacity anyway.
On a node by node basis I don't think they will be able to handle it , unless they got some more equipment and cut down on node size.

Politely suggest you do some / more research on "channel bonding" techniques. Ok , lets talk about channel bonding. When we all have this magical 100 mbit number how the hell will the nodes not run out of bandwidth. You can only bond so many channels in this revision. I suggest you actually read. The nodes can hit peak limits at about 180 mbit including overhead. No matter of channel bonding can get over that limit.

| | | | | | Re: Whole neigborhood will slow to a crawl. Uhhhhhh....when did Comcast discover infinite frequencies across coax? Yes, nodes can run out of bandwidth if requests for bandwidth outstrip availability. | |

Seriously, a node can be oversold. It happens. | |
