Re: Massive price drop on Extreme 50/10 tier! Its coming... Aurora is being upgraded to a D3 CMTS today - you may notice the outage.
Third quarter is when the actual launch is expected. I've already got a Surfboard 6120 hooked up and ready to fly so we'll see if that receive light turns blue when they do Littleton and Denver on Thursday and Friday. Hopefully once the CMTS is D3, the modem will switch to D3. Even if I'm still provisioned for Blast, there should be a nice lift in stability at the least. |

I did notice my downstream power change from +14 to +9 and my upstream from +39 to +44 today. I am in Aurora, don't know if this helps or is just a coincidence. Unfortunately I don't have a SB6120 so I won't know when the CMTS is D3 |

ETHREM! Nice to see your still out there 
From the source I have, my CMTS was installed last night, but the cutover won't happen until the 23rd. My modem never went offline last night and my signal levels didn't change, and still no blue download light.

| Interesting. I wonder if they're going to do the same out here. I want my blue download light damn it! LOL
And yeah, I've been lurking. Trashed my account after I got sick of people jumping down my throat but saw your post and thought it would be worth responding to.
At least they're finally doing it... They put it off long enough. |

I'm in Lakewood, CO. Roommate texted me the Internet went out. I wonder if they're doing the upgrade in Lakewood now? |

Englewood is scheduled for today, Littleton for tomorrow, and Denver for Friday. |

2 edits | It appears that Parker (or at least me) got cut over to the new CMTS last night around 1AM. They didn't force a release of the old IP, so that caused some problems for me, but I'm back up with a new IP on a new subnet that doesn't even have the RDNS/PTR records yet (which is causing problems for sending mail on their mail server - gets rejected). My first hop IP also changed and has no RDNS as well...
My signal strength and frequencies also changed. I don't have a D3 modem yet though...
On the (very) positive side, my speeds went from my usual 1-3Mbps to insanely fast. I was getting 2200-3500KB/sec today during prime time, and I'm on 16/2 business on an SB5101...Hopefully the speed increase isn't just because other people haven't rebooted their equipment yet to grab a new IP...We shall see! |

kudos:2 | Thats good to hear. I also hope that you don't loose your speeds, but I would give it 24hrs at least before getting to happy (crosses fingers). I can't wait for my cutover, I hope they have more than 2 downstream channels (thats what they currently have in my area).

Upstream: 5500 kbps
I'd say you're damn close to it. Seeing as some have said CO is getting upgraded to D3, you might be seeing testing going on. Regardless, enjoy the speed while you got it. |

No it really equals to 15.92mb down because you go 1.99x8=15.92
But still dling at them speeds are nice. |

1 edit | Think your math is a lil off. I go here: »www.easycalculation.com/bandwidt···ator.php
But whatever the case, anything faster then what you got, even for a lil while is great. Sit back and enjoy, eh?
Edit: OOPS, I was off, pardon me! It is right when you put it that way! ^_^ |

| I just changed my IP and still stuck at 8/2 here in S/E Aurora, is that the tier you're subscribed to? |
