Re: Powerboost

SPI is disabled. That "something" that's consuming bandwidth is other users consuming bandwidth on the shared DOCSIS 3.0 node.

I don't expect the connection to maintain 12/2 24x7. It's a $60/mo connection after all. But this whole powerboost thing that shows up on speed tests doesn't show the true performance long term.

IIRC, Comcast uses certain methods to prioritize packets over their network. So while you might see PB kick in on a speed test, a sustained throughput will more than likely see decreased priority. You really can't expect 200+ users sharing a node to all receive full throughput over an extended period of time.
