Re: Rogers to offer 50 megabit service for $149.99

If it's 50 then it'll be DOCSIS 3 and it can handle that kind of speed but the question again is the caps and if they're the same low caps then it's overpriced.

It's all about having the service available, not about actually being able to use it. And I'm sure it will be UP To 50mb, so if you get 1mb you get hi speed

If 50Mbps is only with DOCSIS 3 then yea caps are not necessary.

My question remains, how is Rogers going to justify caps with docsis 3. If they say that a 250Gig cap is necessary with docsis 3 then there's something wrong with Rogers.

38 Mbit/s is the max usable speed on DOCSIS 2 so yes it will have to be DOCSIS 3.
