Re: [OOL] Boost is getting a free boost

I forget what the command is for the docsdiag to show your speed. Also whats the current firmware for the 5120? I'm showing 2.10.1.3

Unless this is it?

docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.1697.2 = [Gauge32] 5000000
docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.1697.3 = [Gauge32] 5000000
docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.1698.1 = [Gauge32] 30000000
docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.1698.2 = [Gauge32] 30000000
docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.1698.3 = [Gauge32] 30000000

Hmm not sure. When I do speedtests I'm getting in the 20/1.7 range or more. But if I am downloading several things at once and go to speedtest I get in the 6's but still decent up

Last Result:
Download Speed: 21811 kbps (2726.4 KB/sec transfer rate)
Upload Speed: 1946 kbps (243.3 KB/sec transfer rate)

I cannot get over the 2.0 barrier yet

I am sure CV will now say, upload up to 5Mbps. Just as the dl is up to 30Mbps. Goodluck getting 30Mbps and 5Mbps though. FIOS must be having some impact though for CV to finally try and match VZ.

According to the documents supplied by the OP, New York (other than Long Island) isn't supposed to see the change until the 21st - a week from today.

I am well aware of that fact. However, if you look above, people in NY and even Brooklyn already have it. That's why I was disappointed.

I got the upgrade.

Brooklyn, NY, 11224.

I had to manually reset the modem. I reset it for the second time today. Low and behold!


C:\ipv6\bin>docsdiag -vv | grep 5000000
docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.2476.1 = [Gauge32] 5000000
docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.2476.2 = [Gauge32] 5000000
docsQosMIB.1.2.2.6.2.2476.3 = [Gauge32] 5000000

My question is why aren't we seeing higher speeds. I can't get a speed test to go above 2600kbps or so.

I will be trying a multithreaded upload. Lets see if I can saturate 5mb.

Dave

edit: Tried to saturate it with Bittorrent. 2.6mbit or so is the highest I can go. Tried to saturate it with ftp uploads. Same story.

FIOS users get 4500kbps on the 5mbit up tiers.. 2600kbps is not impressive at all for a supposedly 5mbit line.

Sorry, but this just doesn't cut the mustard as an "upgrade". Maybe if they do some REAL upgrades and spend some $.

2.6-2.7mb/s .. Hardly 5, or even 4.5.

I'm not impressed. At all.

Agreed. But this is a half arse "upgrade". Excuse me for looking at the gift horse's teeth, but how does 2600 make a 5mbit tier?

1850kbps+700kbps a 5mbit upgrade does not make.

Well technically it IS 5mbit since they upped the caps on the modem to 5mbit, doesn't mean their network has the infrastructure in place to handle that speed though. At this point they are desperately trying to match Verizon.

i recieved this memo on the job this week and figured id share the info.





still no word on whether this will resolve any of the periodic evening slow-down issues throughout the system.
definitely seems as though CV is going chest to chest with verizons fios by going 30/5
this will mean a simple upload will get you capped.

I dont understand, how can the network not have this capacity? Docsis 2.0 will have 30mbps total upload, how could they have been able to split 1.1s 4mbps total upload and still maintain 1850kbps for everyone???

I agree, but the original poster works for OOL. It has not been publicly announced and no one knows whether Engineering needs to make adjustments. It may turn out to be a bad marketing stunt. If no one can get near 5mbps it will actually hurt if they market it as 30/5.

You're right TWG.

I'll Cablevision the benefit of the doubt, and am hoping that upgrades/adjustments will be taking place to help those of us who subscribe to Boost achieve somewhere close to what Verizon 5mbit tier people are achieving, and that is anywhere around 4500kbps.

I'm sure that it's something that needs to be adjusted due to the fact that Docsis 2.0 can easily accomodate this upload tier, and I doubt my lackluster 5mbit "2600kbps" performance is not due to local node congestion.

Let's see what happens...

I now get about 24 down and 2.4 up.

What is port 80 supposed to be capped at? I just uploaded a file over port 80 pretty quickly...
