Franklin, NC | Node Splits with speed upgrade? All this speed is great, but are we going to see some node splits? Cause there's over half a dozen people who are already on overloaded cards. To really improve speeds they need channel bonding or node splits. Remember max (shared) bandwidth per cmts card is ~38mbps down by ~9mbps up. While downstream can be utilized with minor issues to most users, upstream utilization will cause havoc with pings, speeds up and down. |

Yes, here in Ames there are often problems with overloaded nodes. Increasing maximum speeds without a bunch of node splits seems like it would just exacerbate the problem. |

We have actually done quite a few port splits in Ames and other areas. If there is anyone with a specific issue please IM me your MacID. |

Council Bluffs, IA | My speed was really bad in Ames during peak hours for the longest time but since about January Ive seen no problems and have been really happy with the service so I guess those port splits worked. |
