Also looking over the specs on that modem, it allows channel bonding of up to 8 downstream channels, compared to 4 for the SB6120. »www.motorola.com/Business/US-EN/···/SBG6580
I.M.O., it will be quite some time before anyone sees 8 bonded downstream on the CC system.
yeah probably atleast 5 years imo. These D3 modems can handle about 160 down with 4 channels now, so i don't see any cable isp's supply that much speed withen the next five years. But i could be wrong.
