Re: Anti CC fans ? Oh, they'll be here in a few minutes, they're at lunch right now... 
Joking aside, other than a few persistent vocal members about the cap itself, I can't say that I've seen a lot or any complaints that I recall about the network management system in action. Now, if I could just figure out where my upload Powerboost has been for the last year... |

kudos:2 | If you're in a DOCSIS 1.1 market, the upload PowerBoost is minimal (40% or less). In DOCSIS 2 or 3 markets, it's rather nice (to 10-11 Mbps in my experience). However from experience I couldn't get above 2.8 Mbps on DOCSIS 1.1. |

Boynton Beach, FL | Not in a DOCSIS 3 area, unfortunately, but it used to pull 3 Mbps average but now will during non-peak times pull 2200 provisioned but more often than not does around 1400 average - sometimes worse. I don't have any data to back it up, but I think its just a crowded upload channel. Wish they would add another upload channel to spread things out. |

Considering I can get 1tb of bandwidth for a colo server for less than 60 a month I think 250gb is a ripoff.
hell some places you get 3tb for that price..

With what kind of burst bandwidth, 10 mbitps? two server under my control are 1u rackmount colo's with 10 meg UNMETERED for less than 100/month. My business vm sits in a octo core machine with dual 100 meg channels umetered and redundant power connections for under 300/month. Bandwidth is cheap so there is no reason for 250 gigs transfer(it's mistakenly called bandwidth) to be 50/month.

If not, I'm afraid it's apples/oranges. |

Is your homestead located near a carrier hotel within 324ft of an Ethernet switch? If not, I'm afraid it's apples/oranges. Exactly. It's not about the bandwidth, it's about the delivery. A commodity purchased at it's "source" costs a lot less than when that commodity is delivered to your doorstep.

MMMMMMMMM.... Lunch was tasty! 
I have no complaints about the network management system.
As for the cap... that's a different story. |
