Most people are fine with 20/5 speeds, and apparently with similar performance from their local cable provider, or else there would be a much higher turnover rate for homes passed. |

My question is when will we see docsis 3.0 more inner city in virginia. Because hell i would love to see them running more docsis 3.0 modems then the current 1.1 they are running here.
EDIT: Also cox should have a 50/10 plan not just 50/5. hell even add a 30/5 plan in some markets. They would make money. As for the slower uploads in packages, is what i think hurts most, I mean hell why have a only 5mb up on a 50mb down connection? Just silly to me. |

If I were Verizon then
100/100 89.99
75/75 65.99
50/50 50.00 (just for the fiftys)
30/30 35.99
and I'm sure with this price plan people would be running to get it
you'd have the everyone that could get it getting it and the people that want a ton of bandwidth would pay for the 100/100 |

I suspect Cox will adjust their tiers, depending on how the utilization shakes out once people start signing up. |

They could easily offer 100Mbps for $99 just like Cablevision.
The demand just isn't there yet to make that much of a difference in real numbers. Nobody can see their numbers, but I'm guessing that a few hundred people even bother going with that kind of speed right now....even most heavy users would probably congregate around the 20Mbps and 50Mbps mark.
It is however an important marketing bragging mark, something that's countered just by meeting them at 101Mbps/$99. |

Verizon Fios does this crap
In the near future I hope they would offer all symmetric but to conserve bandwidth they will make it asymmetric..
such as 10/10, 25/25, and 75/25
This is a little better but still far from the maximum of 100mbps in both direction at 89.95 a month
50mbps at 49.99
25mbps at 29.99
some would go for 50mbps, some at 25mbps and few at 100mbps  |
