You need to focus on your upload Charter.

4mbps isn't enough, especially for backing up off-site.

The reason for the upload being capped is how asymmetric DOCSIS is...1 DOCSIS3 Upload channel provides 30mbps of bandwidth shared. Not nearly as much bandwidth to share as in the downstream.

The solution will come when the MSOs start doing FTTH, but that's distant outside of extreme high level tiers (like what Comcast does to deliver 505 - MetroE)

Node Splits can also help with this, but again, that would involve spending money on infrastructure.

Agreed, the upload is painful. Try running a regular Youtube or Twitch channel. I have problems anytime I go above 1.8.

The upload is capped because they only use 1 upload channel.
