New Orleans, LA | Honest question How hard is it to implement this?
When I first heard about this, I just assumed it would be a simple tool that could be found on everyone's comcast account page. |

Comcast has been extremely slow on rolling out the promised meter. Either their hardware & SNMP software is incapable of providing accurate info, or Comcast has some marketing motive to NOT roll out the bandwidth meter.

Well of course they have a marketing reason. If you have a gauge showing how much you can use, heavy user folks will use right up to the top. If you leave it ambiguous, then the folks will have to leave a little "play" in the amount of traffic they push.
That said, I don't think that's enough of a reason. I'm guessing they are having a hard time making sure their meter is spot on enough to be defend-able. |
