Re: Cable Ads question is can u sustain that 20 meg download speed over say a 4 gig file download? can u hit that speed ANYTIME of day/night/weekend ? can u maintain 5 meg up also and keep it at that level for say 3 hrs or more?
Just asking cause i could never get anything close to it on CV maybe at the start of the download but never sustained for any serious amount of time. Fios is 20 meg down period no boost no start up speed just a flat down of 20. Boost usually dies after a few min of heavy load at least in my neiborhood. |

I'm not on cablevision anymore since I moved, but my provider (Service Electric/PTD) can sustain 30Mbps on DOCSIS3 for large downloads (I've tested this with downloads >10GB), and I can hit that speed anytime of the day/night/weekend even after the school bus. 5Mbps up I don't have as the speed I get is only 2Mbps up. That's enough for me for now anyway. |

1 edit | Being on service electric out in Sussex i can understand not seeing any over subscribed nodes BUT in my area CV would slow to a 6-8 meg down 1.5 up most of the time except late at night. So having my Solid Fios has been absolutely light years ahead of CV.
P.S. when i work out in sussex it tends to be such a reminder of how jersey can be so refreshing  then other days i sit in Lincoln Tunnel traffic and sigh.  |

It's the best place in NJ to live. Clean air, beautiful scenery and lots of outdoor activity. Also peace and quiet. Pennsylvania is also a hop skip and a jump away to get cheap groceries and lower sales tax as well as powerball.
Then again let me shut my mouth before everyone else sees that and decides to move up here. 
P.S. I used to live in Wayne and had no problems with OOL Boost and node congestion. |
