Re: [Connectivity] New SB6120/6121 Firmware Released

One of the interesting things is that, when people have posted issues on 3-channel upstream bonding with a T4'd channel, it's always the middle channel, even if it's not the middle frequency.

I cannot confirm this. Proof from my cable modem polling script logs, with firmware 1.0.6.6, are below.

Apologies for the syntax changes in the log too (I removed the modulation type sometime in late August to make things easier to read):

The order you see these channels in is the order they're shown in the actual "Signal" web page interface (from left to right).
