Re: 50mbps, SURE! $150, nah. said by swhitney2003:Right now I have 8/2 plan (4:1). I am plenty happy with it, and so it everyone else in the household. $150 connection deserves a little more than a 5mbps up... The existing Minneapolis market 50/5 deployment is using hardware that does not support upstream channel bonding. I suspect upstream speeds are going to be limited until upstream bonding capable hardware starts hitting production lines and becomes real.
You can only deploy the hardware that's available to you. |

I'm not the only one in the household that may use TV. So that choice cannot be made. And plus, watching TV online will just make me hit that cap so much more quickly |
