Re: A word on QOS and prioritization
said by filizaragoza  :That's Whats happening here, The Cable is Charging for a Service that is not fulfilling 100%, as it lacks capacity, SOLUTION Sell only what you have. Want to sell more, Upgrade, If you get what you are demanding, then instead of $43/mo or $53/mo, expect to pay $150/mo. Overbooking, as you call it, is why the costs are what they are. Change that method and you will need to pay much more. There is no free lunch.

| Overbooking is fine, but you have to manage that so that you are capable of keeping up with your obligations with some degree of certainty.
I've asked before if there's a standard for managing overbooking so that customers still get the bandwidth when they demand it, but it seems that there isn't or people don't know what it is.
For Comcast -- maybe for Cable MSOs as a category -- the wheels of management have left the track. Telcos have arranged their business differently. It's still shared bandwidth, but there are more people in a much bigger pool and they seem able to hit their targets much more often than Cable can.
