| Upload speed? I knew they were going to go with Florida..with that leaked announcement.
My only question..Will the upload remain the same at 5meg, being that there are now docsis 3 modems out (Arris modems now even)
I hope Chicago ain't to far behind..but at $150 month..you can count me out.  -- www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdYueIC1pjM | |

| Re: Upload speed? said by BSD24 :It is capable of providing at the least 300Mbps Down. I know the Upload speed is planned (probably after a year maybe of a launch) to be available to be changed to 50Mbps Up with Docsis 3.0, and maybe even higher as more testing is done. 300 down is PER NODE. Its like Comcast releasing a 40 down plan on DOCSIS 1 or 2 equipment. Ain't happening. | |

Me too. Because their std speed pkg with powerboost gives me all the speed I need for any reasonable size download and even the upload works well for transferring relative pics and videos to web sites.
The 50/5 pkg would be good for those working from home and constantly uploading large engineering drawings or PR videos, etc. A nice pkg for corporate warriors.
Of course, it is a little pricey for those who just want their P2P music & movie sharing(read stealing) apps to work quicker. -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. .. My Web Page | |

| Re: Upload speed? said by TKJunkMail :....

unless of course they don't like DRM; or the inconvenience; or installing another app; or paying too much; or having a very limited selection.... | |

Given your constant anti-consumer/pro-business rhetoric, I would assume you work for or have stock holdings in telecom companies. | |

I'm not strongly pro-business, but I still see that media and software pirates are still losers. | |

That's kinda bullheaded. Hell when I downloaded the Metal Gear Solid 4 demo off the Playstation Network for Playstation 3, Konami used p2p. -- www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdYueIC1pjM | |

Thank the aldermen for dividing up Chicago into discrete "single cable company" only areas.
Mostly along the lakefront.... -- Dave, Chicago - Edgewater/Uptown, @ the lakefront | |
