VMs spees are infact 50Mbps/1.75Mbps upload

its NOT 50Mbps/2Mbps
it is infact 50Mbps/1.75Mbps upload ,barely enough to supply the return ACKs when you max out your 50Mit download tcp connections....

their webpage is saying 50Mbps/1.5 Mbps OC and thast also wrong, as you can read on the cable forum thread...

Have you measured tcp acks on a 50 MBPS connection?

What about UDP? DNS, Video, Voice, all kinds of things use udp for download so I would still think it is fine. 1.5 is fine even for a 50 meg download at full speed using tcp.

tcp was never designed to be a high speed data transfer method anyway, it was designed for reliability of traffic delivery, not rate.

Everyone needs to complain and find fault in every company trying to do good for themselves and there customers. Every company needs to make money to provide service, or whats the point in giving you anything? This is a compromise, the customers will be happy, except maybe .0001% apparently.
