Re: WOOT1!1!11

Honestly, I don't care about overselling as long as I get the bandwidth I want when I want it. When capacity is high (gigabits per second) then it's very easy to oversell without anyone getting annoyed at the result.

I'm on Cable and I don't have any peak congestion problems at all.

Probably helps that my node doesn't really have that many people.

Probably helps. I don't have many, if any, peak congestion issues here either, however there are plenty of places who do, especially as you go up in the number of uses your node is shared with, particularly on DOCSIS 3.

I'm on D3 and my speeds are pretty consistent. Almost always get 27-29mbps down and 1700-1900 up at speedtest.net.

OTOH you could get those speeds with DOCSIS 2. And you're not on a crowded node. And that's less than 1/3 of the capacity of DOCSIS 3. Plus you've got caps. So I'd say PenTeleData is playing it safe. Which is fine...I suppose...
