Re: Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

said by Lyserjic:
Don't most (sensible) cable system operators have their subscriber bandwidth allocation controlled at the head end? Why would any cable provider rely on a flashed setting in the cable modem to control bandwidth?

Seems like poor planning on the part of the cable company.
Because of the nature or cable system which are essentially large LAN. Each node may be limited but NOT each user, that is in the box... unlike DSL where it is a 1 to 1 connection and the speed it totally controlled by the CO DSLAM.
