 tiga @privacyfoundation.ch | [Speed] 200 Mbps/25 Mbps from Comcast Business Class Has anyone ordered the Internet tier with 200 Mbps downstream, 25 Mbps upstream that's described at »bit.ly/W8RBvx ? This is just for the West division, right? I was always curious what the West division does differently to get the better coax upstream tiers - different lasers, different CMTS blades, different management? |

yes its select markets. i cant imagine its on coax. but ya never know.
you dont need different lasers, you just need to limit your traffic, so 1:1 on the upstream ports at the CMTS, and small segmented nodes. -- I'm better than you! |

Business or not, I'm drooling even more. |

| Well, you would know, what's the sitch? Is there any 200 speeds in the pipe at all?
EDIT: Fiber based, eh? So lemme get this right. 200/25 and 305/65 Met-E? |

 | What's the point of it being fiber based? Docsis should handle it fine no?
The upload is also pathetic for fiber |
