I didn't think our current modems can reach those speeds. |

| They can't, its usually in the range of 30-38mpbs the current modems being handed out (doscis 2.0).
I know they've been doing docsis 3.0 testing in employees homes for a while. Probably just putting it up there, for business/future.

AWESOME
Yep looks like its Docsis 3.0 time soon. Verizon FIOS vs Time Warner Docsis 3.0 around here.
Sounds like they are updating the tools. Interesting why this was the first sign. But nevertheless, it does look like DOCSIS 3.0 for NYC is going forward.
Docsis 3.0 is 100MBPS.
Should not be too long from now till its offered. They said by December 2009. It is now June 30th. |

What modem are you using? Can you post a screenshot of the speed test. Check other speed test sites as well. |

It goes UP To 100MBPS in the Speed test. Previously it was 20MBPS tops.
Reason for it being updated is Docsis 3.0.
patt2k's modem and screenshot are irrelevant.
Anyone can go to »speedtest.nyc.rr.com/ and see the 100Mbps.
It previously was 20Mbps as patt2k said.
Those who subscribe to Docsis 3.0 when offered will have the higher speed tiers. Such will require a higher price and a modem swap.
As to when this happens, my guess is its being rolled out as we speak and will show up shortly. I wonder if it will be a market by market rollout or whatnot. Such appears to be in play for the NYC market. |

2 edits | I am on Earthlink Cable. It also shows the 100Mbps.
My connection is lagging really bad today. Hoping for 100Mbps and hoping for better peering to go with it.
Im not sure what the modem diagnostic stuff means but I know no connection is perfect.
Docsis 3.0 should hold a better connection I would hope. |

I'm sorry, I misunderstood your post. I thought you ran a speed test and it showed 100Mbps. I didn't realize the site is showing maximum speeds of 100Mbps. |

Re: Road Runner NYC 100 MBPS?
Watch NYC come out with two speeds, regular road runner at 30/2. And turbo at like 70/5 or something, just for the fact of competition.
See the low upload? Its just a given since RR has never been the company to EVER give any good speeds.
I mean I remember the day it became available in Queens, and I told my friend on OOL who had 10000/1000 speeds that I would kick his connections ass. Well I was wrong because they started at 2000/256. What a jip this company has been and will always be. |

For one of their largest subscriber base, they can't even manage to get 10/512 -15/768 - 20/1 correct. You really think they're going to get docsis 3 tiers correct?

4 edits | Docsis 3.0 is not as easy as you think to deploy and the fact is most customers will not be spending the extra for the service. |
