Re: What about the "hogs"
said by RadioDoc  :Re-read the article. Not all ISPs are capping bandwidth. Notice the gist of the article is being propounded by Comcrap, not TWC, the nost notable implementing the above-referenced caps. |

Ever wonder how bandwidth is actually distinguised by providers with both BB and cable services from the same provider? Dunno bout your personal situation, but Cox in this county plays fast/loose with bandwidth and doesn't really distinguish cable v BB. Bandwidth is bandwidth. |

1 edit | High speed Internet via DOCSIS is carried via RF channels just like any TV channel is. This, though, is not an Internet service. I seriously doubt Cox would be throttling a cable VoD channel they provide and charge for, should they choose to offer a similar product.
This Cablevision story is about a service they are putting on their own systems, not something they are offering to the world via Internet.
For some reason you don't seem to be able to separate captive video services from Internet data.
