Swap to DOCSIS 3.0 Modem in Comcast HSI http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r22135806 en Wed, 10 Feb 2010 08:30:04 EDT Wed, 10 Feb 2010 08:30:04 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23781860 Crf250 : Yo crucial any word on when local office might get d3 modems?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23781860 Wed, 10 Feb 2010 06:42:49 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23781784 Drizew : Well considering they said that they were getting rid of the 22/5 tier, I really don't think they will just make it 30/7 instead.
Here is what I think.
1/384 is already established.
12/2 will stay 12/2
16/2 will go to 20/4
22/5 disappears
50/10 stays 50/10
and 100/15 stays 100/15
Of course the last 2 will probably change once there is upstream bonding. I expect the 50 tier to have about 20 up and the 100 tier to have around 40.
We'll see what happens. All I know is that I am excited for DOCSIS 3 to come to New Mexico. Bring on the 20/4!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23781784 Wed, 10 Feb 2010 05:35:23 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23781724 killer2000 : I think this is how the speeds will translate.

You WILL need a Docsis 3 modem. You may see speed increases on a regular Docsis 2 modem but the will not be consistent. A Docsis 3 modem allows for Multi channel bonding, thus once one of the downstream channels become over crowded the modem will switch to another channel. Also, it would be a good idea to have a wireless-N router and wireless-N card in your computer. From my experience Comcast is working diligently to correct speed issues if you encounter and problems. Mainly you want to ask that a lead tech is sent out for they should make all efforts to see that your issue is resolved.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23780159 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 20:07:21 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23780171 Reese1972 : You like the new speeds]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23780171 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 19:46:04 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23780030 Crf250 : Overpolished, what tier are u currently on?

When they launch Xfinity officially that would be the most likely time to announce any upgrades if they are going to do so in the short-term. Those upgrades may also be only for Xfinity regions, I have no idea.

AFAIK, there has been no official announcement that the 22/5 tier is going away - hence a bit of speculation about what they're really going to do.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23779832 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 18:35:43 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23779792 relish : Thanks for the reply AVonGauss.

Where does the new 20/4 tier fall into the mix?

12/2
16/2
*20/4
22/5 (Who would pay more for only 2mb/s gain? Since this tier was announced as being discontinued, I'm hoping 30/7 or something similar along those lines comes into play. :)

Another interesting thing he said was that all of the current tiers are basically going to double, and that prices will remain the same. He even said that the 16/2 tier price will remain the same when it doubles (to 30/4 I'm guessing?).
When an area is upgraded to DOCSIS 3, Comcast has been upgrading 6/1 to 12/2, 8/2 to 16/2 and if you were paying additional for Blast (i.e. $20 + base price) you were going to 22/5. Any talk of additional speed upgrades is probably pure speculation at this point as I don't believe Comcast has officially announced anything at this point. The closest I've seen to a public comment on the topic is regarding the Xfinity initial markets. This of course refers to sustained or provisioned speeds vs what you may see momentarily due to PowerBoost.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23779636 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 17:52:15 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23779378 relish : Just got off the phone with Comcast and this representative seemed pretty knowledgeable on the Michigan roll-outs and new tiers.

The first thing he said was that my current modem would handle the new DOCSIS 3.0 tiers except the 50/10. Everything below that will work, but will it work as good as having a real DOCSIS 3.0 modem would?

The second thing he said was that the 20/4 Blast! and DOCSIS 3.0 upgrade may not occur in the Sterling Heights area until as late as March. He said that it's been rolled out in at least 20 Michigan cities as of Feb. 09, 2010. What's interesting is that the new Blast! upgrade and DOCSIS 3.0 appear to only roll out jointly, so don't expect to see the new Blast! upgrade until DOCSIS 3.0 is available in your area.

Another interesting thing he said was that all of the current tiers are basically going to double, and that prices will remain the same.

Maybe 20/4 means 16/2 with powerboost up to 20/4? I do see 4 Mbps upstream +/- for a while (powerboost) then it drops down to 2. It's worded so poorly, though, and 12/2 is the sustained speeds so I don't know what to think.

Since blast is being upgraded to 20/4 from 16/2 it sounds like you should be able to upgrade(that is if you have
HD Preferred Plus XF or better) or the $10 a month your paying.

Probably just need a quick call to have them push the new config to your modem :)

So I'll have to call my rep and see if they can do something similar for 20/4 and what the price difference is/etc.

Definitely a good sign that 20/4 is available now...means D3 is hopefully something coming down the pipe soon here!

You don't need a 3.0 modem though. Question is how does living in an apartment complex with a triple play factor into it? I guess it cant hurt to try asking a few Comcast employees if you can get upgraded. Are you already on 16/2? Seems like all they would have to do is push the new config file to your modem. It may also be that 16/2 is part of the bundle so you have to order every service separately to get 20/4.

I don't think there has really ever been an official notice from Comcast. It probably varies from market to market, what employee you ask, CMTS your on, if it has DOCSIS 3.0 yet, etc. The comcast.com site shows you can order it in Roseville however.

If you have Docsis 3.0 more then likely you can get the new speeds.

Guess I'll just have to wait and see what the pricing looks like once these D3 plans are available in the Folsom area.
From what I understand and the Comcast.com web site verify this 20/4 will be $52.94. The price that blast currently is(16/2) and will become the new blast teir while performance(aka basic teir) will stay at 12/2 and $42.94. So only a $10 difference between the two tiers.

Also they are offering a 6 month 24.94 for promotion discount for current cable subscribers who upgrade to blast. Its very tempting...

So currently 16/2, 22/5 and 50/10 are available in most D3 areas, right? Are you saying 12/2 is going to be 16/2, 16/2 will now be 20/4 and 22/5 will be 30/7? I just don't see why they'd have a 20/4 tier and a 22/5 tier, and if they're replacing 22/5 with 20/4 it sounds like they bit off more than they could chew with the 22/5 profile and are taking a small step back to avoid congestion.

I want every bit of upstream I can get once DOCSIS 3 plans are available here. Going from 16/2 to 20/4 doesn't seem like much of a difference to warrant the (I'm assuming) huge price difference. Guess I'll just have to wait and see what the pricing looks like once these D3 plans are available in the Folsom area.

If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." -Ferris]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23775720 Tue, 09 Feb 2010 00:24:09 EDT So what's the deal with the new tiers? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23775708 relish : It's unclear as to what the DOCSIS 3.0 tiers will consist of now that the 22/5 tier is going bye-bye. I have heard from some places that 22/5 is being bumped to 30/7, but some people are saying that it's only "burstable" to 30/7 -- not fixed. The last press release from Comcast only says that the 22/5 tier is going away, but not whether or not it's being replaced by something else.

This is the way that seems logical to me, but I'm not sure if it's right as there doesn't appear to be any official confirmation of a 30/7 tier.

Nah I'm not planing on upgrading past performance. Our cable bill is already expensive enough & with the Comcast analog to digital coming its going up even more due to forced STB rentals for every HDTV (since the built in qam digtial tunners will no longer work) we will be renting 2 more boxes(+$20/month i think)... but that's a mater for the TV forum..

Once this area gets it, I'll probably call to see if I can pay a few extra bucks for 22/5. I'm on a triple play with 16/2 at the moment, so I'm not sure what the cost difference will be.

That's because they have powerboost on the upload too now(really throws speedtests off). If you were to upload a large 200mb file or so it will drop off to 2mbps or around 250.00 KB/s. Which is something I have found to be the case here.

nah they don't have it. You cant order ultra or extreme because DOCSIS 3.0 still hasn't been officially announced in the Sacramento region. Makes since though since not all CMTS have been upgraded to 3.0 yet.

We probably wont see those until being announced officially by Comcast and the bay area upgrade provides any clues it wont be until the world of more(conversion of analog TV cable channels to digital ) move is complete which has yet to start locally. The conversion usually takes 6 months or longer i think(especially because it requires every customer to rent a cable box or DTA for every TV). So I'm not expecting an official DOCSIS 3.0 announcement anytime soon around here.

that's odd. I guess someone forgot to stock them there? I think the techs get their supplies elsewhere since they moved to the new place you don't see vans parked nearby anymore.

Or thinking negatively maybe they wanted to force you to pay for a tech visit :/

well if you don't want to wait and don't plan on renting a modem you should be able to go buy your Motorola sb6120 modem at pretty much any electronics store(best buy, frys, etc) now. Then you just have to get it provisioned either doing it yourself online once you hook it up or calling the 1-800 Comcast support number.

ah yeah I think you'll need a new modem...we have yet to see anyone with the new speed tiers within the region on DOCSIS 2.0. I't may be a requirement that you have DOCSIS 3.0?

I was just at the Roseville CC to pick up a new cable splitter and forgot to ask if they are renting out the new modems yet. However when I was leaving i did see a guy that was just finished up with a customer rep with what appeared to be an brand new similar looking box that my was sb6120 was in. Personally if they still aren't offering them as rentals, I would just buy your own modem anyways as you avoid the monthly rental fee.

you should be able to do it in your modem diagnostics page:
From the Forum FAQ:
•1.E) For a Scientific Atlanta modem, go to »192.168.100.1. The username is admin and the password is w2402

I think you mentioned having a Scientific Atlantic. I suspect that should be some Reset factory default configuration in there somewhere like the Motorola's have which will re download the firmware/config files.
You should be able to find out your particular model there as well and then you can look it up online to see if it even supports DOCSIS 3.0. I suspect that it doesn't thus you may need a new modem.

Did you get a notice on your door knob a while back about an outage in your neighborhood? We did. And we also got a letter regarding it, it said about upgrading equipment.

I actually saw them opening every pedestal and doing maintenance. They even replaced the one in front of our neighbor's. I'm actually home when they performed maintenance on the one in my front yard, as I'm surfing the net when suddenly nothing is happening. I tried checking the modem, then I saw people doing work on the pedestal.

But that was I guess last month. Just an FYI.
Oh that probably explains why you got it first then. I bet they just recently upgraded your area to a higher frequency probably in the GHZ range allowing for more from comcast like HD channels, etc. I've heard a lot of the sac county system is really dated and they want to upgrade it.

That reminds me of about 6 months ago Surewest did the same around here in this neighborhood along all the streets. Running new fiber in the streets to houses, etc. All except for ours because its a gated community and if we wanted to upgrade the HOA would have to pay for it i was told. Doh, I'm about 1,500 feet from true high speed :/

I think both Comcast and Surewest like teasing me lol.

How does the SB6120 compare in size with the SB5100?
My SB5100, which I have had for at least 6 years, is crammed along with a router in a small hole in the wall down in the basement. I am very space constricted.
If you 'squared up' the SB5xxx series, that is pretty much the 6120. It's just a big rectangle. It has venting on the 'left', top and front (those sides are almost entirely full of holes). There are mounting slots on the right side so it could be hung on a wall.

Did you get a notice on your door knob a while back about an outage in your neighborhood? We did. And we also got a letter regarding it, it said about upgrading equipment.

I actually saw them opening every pedestal and doing maintenance. They even replaced the one in front of our neighbor's. I'm actually home when they performed maintenance on the one in my front yard, as I'm surfing the net when suddenly nothing is happening.

I have been advised by Comcast rep that they are still working on issue with this modem and areas with Pre-Docsis 3.0 that are still running on Docsis 2.

I was told they can lock the modem on DOCSIS 1 mode and it will work but it would be locked to that mode when the area goes to DOCSIS 3 and then it would be in-compatible and stop functioning.

I was told they can lock the modem on DOCSIS 1 mode and it will work but it would be locked to that mode when the area goes to DOCSIS 3 and then it would be in-compatible and stop functioning.

Nice! It sure beats Renting a modem from comcast ;) Ours has been rock solid since we first got comcast hsi back when their fastest speed was 3meg/256k. Not particularly sure what year that was lol. I just hope the new sb6120 lasts as long.

Anyways the firmware looks familiar. I guess it just doesn't show any of the important stats in its current version. I wish Comcast didn't block SNMP disabling docsdiag. That was a cool tool to view that information from a command prompt.

I'm not sure on the specifics with docsis 3.0 but from what I understand Comcast VOIP(if going with them as your provider) is separated from the internet so excessive saturation of the internet connection doesn't effect voip. Essentially its like having two lines.

I've got 4 downstream channels bonded, but how exactly does data arrive. If I am downloading a large file for example, does DOCSIS 3 open 4 channels to the host server? That doesn't seem to make sense to me... So then is it 1 channel to the host server, but broken down into 4 more channels to my modem, at which point the data is recombined into a single stream to my computer? Or is it 1 channel to the host server, 1 channel to my modem, and 1 channel to my computer, with the remaining 3 channels available to concurrently access other sites/content/data?

I'm just trying to figure out if the bonded channels are strictly for load-balancing, and shift the entirety of a data stream onto a single channel exclusively, or if the data arrives broken up across multiple channels, while the modem waits for all the necessary packets in order to recombine them. If it's the latter, then using a P2P program could easily saturate all of my available downstream bandwidth, causing congestion for other devices trying to access the Internet. If it's the former, then I wouldn't have to worry as there would be 3 other channels on which data could travel unimpeded.

* Side note I did some searching through the sac bee and bay area newspapers and noticed that updates which happened in many bay area communities to DOCSIS3.0 seemed to coincide with the World of More aka Project Calvery Completion in which Comcast completes a move of all analog TV channels about 31 and up to digital allowing for them to reclaim some frequency headroom in the cable systems to add more services. It shouldn't have an effect on HSI though I would think? I'm speculation that they might be waiting for that transition to happen locally. From what I heard over on avsforum its scheduled for March/April at the earliest.

Downstream remains single channel though.
I did a quick speedtest (I know, it doesn't prove anything), and I'm seeing 24/5. Not sure how much PB contributed to that. Maybe still D2, I don't know.
Yeah that's still the old config file from what I understand. It would show d11_m_sb6120_speedtierextreme2_c01.c if it was the new speed tier. The key wording being speedteirextreme2. On my sb5100 I cant seem to view the config no mater what i do so I'm not sure whats on it. And your speedtest you did sounds to me like powerboost. That's something of which we only had for the first month when they came out with it here in Roseville. Since then powerboost has been non existent. I always get speeds around 6meg/1meg on those tests.

I'm curious as to what the benefits are if you aren't subscribing to one of the new speed tiers? maybe I should upgrade from my sb5100 and get a SB6120 myself? I'll be on the 12/2 tier whenever Comcast finally does the upgrade here. How difficult is it to get modem switched over? you cant do it yourself through the website can you?

Check out the WNDR3700 from Netgear. It's ranked #3 fastest WAN to LAN performance @ 408Mbps. This will prepare you for future upgrades as well as Comcast may offer up to 200Mbps within the next few years.

It's the hottest and highest rated wireless N router at the moment and I don't think you can go wrong with it. Do a little research on it and you'll know what I mean. You can get one for around $120-$160 depending on the deal you get.

I just got around to ordering the Ultra package.

They sent a tech and he insisted on a SBV5220 phone modem... Less than stellar results.

When I bypass my router my speed tests range from 1Mbps - 5Mbps down, but surprisingly my up is 4Mbps-12Mbps -- with my up always being at least twice my down.

With my router (Netgear WNDR3300 -- wired connection) I get even more pathetic results. The router may not completely compatible?

I'm curious of what else could be causing issues, because it doesn't seem like the modem should be making a huge difference between 5Mbps and the expected 22Mbps.

Needless to say they've put in an RoS to get me a D3. I have to wait a whole week.

So I'm curious of what advice you guys have about tweaking my setup once my modem arrives?? Their techs seem less than knowledgable about these new tiers.

I have a 5100 and was having this problem. Check your downstream power levels, mine went up recently along with my IP being changed, so I am assuming they deployed the DOCSIS3 hardware in my area. Well the signal level apparently went up TOO much, so I had a tech come out and all he did was install a 2-way splitter in front of my cable modem (I have no TV's only the cable modem plugged into comcast) and it seems to be much more reliable now.

Yea, something sounds fishy about that...
I had my SB6120 synced up when it was still D1.1 around here, and it worked just fine. They then went to D2, and then launched D3 and it has synced all the time without issues. Did the tech check your signal level and make sure your not on the edge? Maybe a defective modem? The SB6120 should (and is designed to) be backwards compatible with D1.1 and D2 systems, so something just seems off... :huh:

Any reports of faster speeds or DOC 3.0 channel bonding in these areas?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23529635 Tue, 22 Dec 2009 11:21:03 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23527681 jluzbet : ok thanks for the info...

hum can that be something on my end?
Yes it could be on your end, as in bad cable, bad splitters, to many splitters before the modem and etc. You really like to keep that upstream power level below 50 if possible. But if its not causing problems i would leave it be. But if a issue does come up, you know what to look at.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23527644 Mon, 21 Dec 2009 22:47:49 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23527619 jluzbet : hum can that be something on my end?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23527619 Mon, 21 Dec 2009 22:42:15 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23527598 madden2k5 : Too bad the same can't be said about your upstream power level, its pushing very close to max, which can cause problems.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23527598 Mon, 21 Dec 2009 22:36:57 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23527591 jluzbet : Miami is looking good...

Wanted to clarify a few things. I was already on the 16/2 plan so easy upgrade for me...just a modem upgrade. When I got home I called and had them provision the modem. A few speed tests showed my upstream is steady at over 5 megs but my downstream only seems to be around 17 megs which is basically what it has been.

This is what the signal page of my modem shows:

[att=1]

From the looks of it I'm only getting one channel on the downstream side but not sure. Only one channel is showing a channel number however all the other channels show signal levels. Should each channel have it's own channel number?

The loaded config file is: d11_m_dpc3000_ultra_c01.cm

Thought I'd ask here before I call them again.

Edit: Update...Looks like it's ok this morning. I suppose having the modem on a while it finally synced all 4 channels. I'll keep monitoring.

Quick question: if your area was upgraded and you have the four bonded downstream channels with a significant bandwidth increase, but there hasn't been an official D3 roll-out yet (website still says 16/2 Performance Plus is the best speed offered), will you be able to sign up for a D3 speed tier over the phone?

Great news. I was worried that I had already been updated, but I wasn't seeing the speeds.
Yeah I might actually go from qwest back to Comcast because of it. I do a lot of uploading large files (photography) and 800k isn't cutting it.

Even though the house we are moving to in Sandy is able to get 20 down, I think I will move to Comcast for the 2 meg upload and higher.

"20/4" sounds like "up to 20/4," which would be the 16/2 tier with PowerBoost. There is another stickied topic about 16/2 and 12/2 tiers.

The DOCSIS 3.0 tiers are 22/5 + PowerBoost and 50/10, just to keep this clear from confusion.
In short, typical of BLAST (which is now Comcast's middle tier, and used to be their high end).
It still is their high end tier in areas like mine, we don't have DOCSIS 3.0 yet.

Decmber 11th 2009
Auburn Hills
Birmingham
Dearborn
Dearborn Heights
Madison Heights
Rochester Hills

December 22nd 2009
Ann Arbor
Battle Creek
Canton
Holt
New Haven
Plymouth
Yipsilanti

She didn't have any other dates but said the rest of the cities should follow sometime in January. I'm in Detroit so it looks like most will be enjoying the upgrades without me :(

Only modem I could get quickly locally was a SB6120 and I was oddly surprised to see the blue receive light instead of the green I usually see. Wouldn't have thought they'd have bonding in this area since there is no FIOS anywhere near me.

I was just simply stating I haven't seen any noticeable change when using downstream channel bonding. I will however be very interested when they implement upstream channel bonding if it has any significant change on latency, only time will tell...

The rep on the phone is telling me they have to do a truck roll to get the new DOCSIS 3 modem (he waived the charge) and it would cost me $20/month more to upgrade to 22/5 from my BLAST! tier. He is telling me that Fresno/Clovis does in fact have 22/5 and 50/10.

So I guess since Comcast is planning on upgrading their whole footprint this could be either before the end of this year or sometime next year. But seeing the speeds listed on my address tells me they must be setting up the billing system for it and preparing a launch sometime soon.

Comcast has been doing a fine job on how fast they have been deploying D3 to there markets also. You just gotta understand, everyone in these less/no competition markets are gunna be last to get it anyways.
In contrast to that.... I know people who subject themselves to dial-up, who can get any form of broadband!!

We've had U-verse here for, what, over two years now? Granted U-verse is lame but they do compete on price.

I'm betting that Comcast took a look at Michigan's crashing economy (unemployment now up to 15.3% despite several hundred thousand refugees having fled the state, "discouraged" and involuntary part-time workers, etc) and figured "why rush?" Oh well, with the digital transition underway (first batch of analog channels were shut off this week) it shouldn't be too much longer. ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23185757 Wed, 14 Oct 2009 22:32:35 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23183979 madden2k5 :

I bought the SB6120 after my SB5100 started to die. The old modem would just stop responding and have to be rebooted.

The first SB6120 I got from Amazon.com was dead. It would light the power lamp but no other lamps would ever come on.

I exchanged it and the replacement showed up Monday. It took about 45 minutes on the phone with Comcast to get the modem provisioned. After installation I checked the log on the modem and saw that it had updated to the current firmware version.

Now, here's where things get confusing. I am located in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. I got a voicemail message a few weeks ago from Comcast advising me to reboot my modem as new modem speeds had been delivered. I dutifully rebooted my modem I had at the time and did some speed tests and saw I was getting about 8MB down and 2MB up.

So, now that I had the new DOCSIS 3.0 modem I checked and see that I am getting 4MB down and 2MB up. Occasionally doing speed tests to different servers I will get upwards of 8MB up but I never see anything other than 4MB or less down. In fact, sometimes I see the needle on the download test spike up over 8MB and then immediately throttle back down to 4MB.

I spent about an hour on the phone with a Comcast technician today trying to figure out what was going on. He said my signal looks great and he doesn't see any problem with my modem, but that it is acting like each of the 4 modem channels is throttling to 1MB top download speed. He removed all speed caps on my modem and re-provisioned it and I still can't get over 4MB. All of this testing was done with an XP laptop plugged directly into the modem. Normally I run it behind a DIR-655 but regardless how I am hooked up I am now getting capped at these low speeds.

Eventually he ran out of ideas and recommended swapping the modem, trying it on the 1st feed into the home, or having a technician come out and confirm the issue.

Does anyone have any other ideas on this? I'm in a three year old home with good wiring and no additional splitters installed. Could the problem be at the head end? Any way to prove this out further without buying another modem or having Comcast do a truck roll?

Any help would be appreciated, it's getting a bit frustrating.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23149535 Thu, 08 Oct 2009 00:32:15 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23147165 sortofageek : That's great, but this is the DOCSIS 3.0 topic.

Did you know that DOCSIS is just a 3rd party certification process? Yup, DOCSIS was created so the customer was able to purchase a modem and said modem was compatible with other isp's. Thats all DOCSIS is. Don't believe me? Look it up.

As stated before single channel modems were capable of 48mbps, these new modems bond four channels, making it possible to achieve higher speeds. The new certification process for these modems was revised and called version 3, hence DOCSIS 3.

To be honest, I am sick of people thinking it's DOCSIS that is allowing the faster speeds.

Still waiting in Ann Arbor despite being somewhat insulated from reality by the UofM. The digital transition is well under way though, I received the "free" cable boxes last week. Bright side of the depression: when one of those boxes stopped working, Comcast had a truck visit in less than 2 hours. Sure, they should have figured out that the problem was on their end (something about a "rate card") and not needed the truck roll but as big companies go it's still pretty impressive.

I am curious. What did you do to tweak your 7 install to get a bit more out of the upload?
Everything I tweaked was within the Netshell interface, I didn't play with any numbers directly though. After running the Microsoft router test to confirm my cisco/linksys RVS4000 met the needed specs I did the following:

1. Run As Admin -> Command Prompt.
2. From the command prompt, I typed: "Netsh" and hit enter.
3. I checked my global settings first: int tcp show global

(Old Settings) New Settings

TCP Global Parameters
---------------------------------------------
Receive-Side Scaling State: (Enabled) Enabled
Chimney Offload State: (Automatic) Enabled
Receive Window Auto-Tuning Level: (Normal) Normal
Direct Cache Access (DCA): (Disabled) Enabled
Add-On Congestion Control Provider: (Disabled) Enabled
ECN Capability: (Disabled) Enabled
RFC 1323 Timestamps: (Disabled) Disabled

The only one I was unfamiliar with was DCA but this magically fixed one of the most frustrating problems I have had recently; where my download speed would report right but it would only come in stuttered bursts followed by periods of non-responsiveness. This happend mainly with Internet Download Manager and specific sites, after changing this and restarting my computer the stutter stop went away completely.

It really is something else to see 20 downloads running in tandem all fluxuating between 600kbps and 2 MBPS in speed.

What was your previous speed? I am limited to 6/2 currently. Did you receive a new config file to your modem? I am fairly certain we do not have it here yet but its good to know what to look for.
My previous speed was 16 mbps, but my upload has always been a little weird. Not sure if it is my position in my building, my router, or what causing it. I've had all sorts of odd things happen: for instance, during the docsis 3.0 upgrade my IP for a week would only sync to New Jersey. No one at Comcast knew why or could figure out the cause.

Prior Upload was 8-10 mbps during this time period. Download would cap at 15 mbps.

Also, it should be noted if you have an RVC4000 and have any speed issues - it caps at 16 mbps with IPS turned on. Which sucks, but I am just going to have to live with it for now. Turning this feature off immediately allowed my speed to cap out.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23135037 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 14:27:59 EDT Re: Let's keep all DOCSIS 3.0 Discussion in this thread, please http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23134880 Tlamming : Anyone hear anything about Michigan, at all? ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23134880 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 14:03:31 EDT Re: DOCSIS 3.0 Available in Atlanta, GA http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23134666 popsmear : What was your previous speed?

Soon as I asked if it was available in Atlanta yet, he told me "Yep it is, let me look up your specific area." He confirmed it was and even made a side comment that my account had a ridiculously good deal on it as it was so that I wouldn't be shocked by the price increase. (Had managed to finagle 22 mbps speed for $5 more than 6 mbps).

I said that was fine, as I was to excited at the prospect of 50 mbps to much care, and he goes alright let me get the mac address from you real quick...and a modem resync later I was clocking 59 mbps.

I then tweaked my Windows 7 install a bit to boost up my upload but I'll save that for another post unless someone is curious.

The guy was more on the ball than most of the technical support analysts I have talked to.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23134519 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 12:59:51 EDT Re: DOCSIS 3.0 Available in Atlanta, GA http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23133603 popsmear : Don't think I have that in 30344 :(]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23133603 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 10:07:30 EDT Re: DOCSIS 3.0 Available in Atlanta, GA http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23133340 Goober : I feel your pain . . .]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23133340 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 09:17:50 EDT Re: DOCSIS 3.0 Available in Atlanta, GA http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23133050 LarryE : Why can't I get those upload speeds in Chicago? :p]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23133050 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 07:35:19 EDT Re: DOCSIS 3.0 Available in Atlanta, GA http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,23132770 redrims999 : Hmm that's strange.

Shouldn't it be double? I had been using the Comcast Naples SpeedTest to check to see if D3 was enabled(not as an actual speedtest) assuming PowerBoost would be doubled both ways when D3 went online. It kept giving downstream speeds of 15-16 Mbps , while upstream has tripled or quadrupled. I didn't know it was online until I saw Bit Torrent transfer speeds.
