I mean hell why have a only 5mb up on a 50mb down connection?
Because no vendors have upstream channel bonding working yet with DOCSIS 3.0, so you're still grouping people on a shared 27mbps (minus overhead) upstream connection.
why not not comcast doe 10mbps up.
because unlike token downstream increases that go largely unused, whatever upload you have CAN be used funny! -- When I gez aju zavateh na nalechoo more new yonooz tonigh molinigh - Ken Lee
