Re: Now comes with twice as many crap channels as before!

If it was me, I would install the Vyyo Inc 3 Ghz spectrum overlay. It would effectively upgrade the cable system to 3 Ghz without having to rebuild the cable systems.

In some areas, Cox is deploying it, »www.cable360.net/ct/news/thewire/22781.html .

That would allow for quite a bit more channel bonding as well.
Thanks! Can you please give a couple of sentences that puts this into meaning for those of us who are on the primer? What exactly is happening here?

What this does is add quite a bit of capacity to the cable system. It doubles downstream capacity and adding four times the amount of upstream bandwidth.[Depending on how it is setup .] The other part about it, is that it will work with existing equipment. There is some work needed, like amps and cable taps changed to a 3 Ghz capable one, and some equipment at the headend will have to be added.

This would add room for quite a bit of HD, faster internet, and more channels without upgrading to FTTP.
It is also considerable less, $125 per home passed, vs. $1,500 - $2,000 for FTTP.

This may help explain it, better than I can..
