Re: I don't get it... said by Combat Chuck:said by funchords:They -can- enable this, but such things take time. They're under a clock to change from the old RST method by the EOY. What's driving me nuts is that people seem to be more concerned about the QOS than they were the packet resets. QOS is loads better than random resets. Some are objecting because they see "Forged Resets" vs. "the new QOS scheme" as a false choice, especially with a capped service (a fact many just learned).
Have you ever seen the commercial of the Comcast Powerboost guy running in the desert? To some customers, it must seem like seems like he's suffered two broken legs and a concussion. This premium service doesn't look so premium anymore.
Others are objecting because the RSTs never affected them. Still others think that the new effects will hit download in a big way (which I doubt it will). I'm objecting certain technical aspects but I think you're right about this being better targeted to congestion and about this being disclosed -- which permits discussions like this in the first place!
