Your upstream modulation has probably changed to 32QAM and your symbol rate is now 5.120Msym/sec. which will give you about double the upload bandwidth. About two weeks ago, my upstream RF Channel changed from 4 to 3 and it switched from 16QAM to 32 and also doubled my upload speed to 10Mbps, but keep in mind, this is just a temporary "Powerboost" and will go back down to 2Mbps uploac. |

so can they really offer 10mb/s or faster upload speeds? what is the maximum upload speed that they can go up to? |

» [Speed] Higher upload PowerBoost? 64QAM? DOCSIS 2.0?My highest upload PowerBoost so far was 11.4(I think). |

As with any Powerboost, the speed will vary and should normally drop down after awhile. If the channel is busy, you won't get those speeds even with PB.
If your area starts using aggressive DCC (Dynamic Channel Change) to load balance, your upstream may change modulation. Mine keeps altering between 5.12Msym and 2.56Msym. |

Yep, mine used to be 64QAM and for the last 2 weeks or so has been locked in at 32QAM, always on Channel 3. |
