| Re: Comcast No he knows exactly what's going on. What's the point of paying more for a 50/10 connection if your going to use it up around 10 x times faster lol. Since when did you become a statistics holder for the "average person". There is no such thing as an "average user", and if there is it's definately not you. | |

The first wave of modems are not capable of the full bonded channels on the upload side. Eventually it will be capable of 50/20 or more. | |

Where in that press release was there any mention of Oregon?

| Re: The pricing is wrong! said by Cthen :Got an official Comcast letter with this months bill telling me they are raising the price of the Blast! tier another $10. No explanation as to why!  Not only that, they insulted my intelligence by wording the letter that I should be happy because I have to do nothing while this takes place. That is likely because Ultra will be replacing Blast at that price (how much have you been cracking your head against the cap ceiling at your current speeds?). Most (in fact, all) the ones that have been complaining about getting a letter talking about a price increase are also the ones complaining about caps; while I did crack the caps twice, I have not gotten any such price-increase letter (Blast customr in the Washington, DC area). | |

| Re: Comcast in AT&T territory is going to do to AT&T.... said by fatmanskinny :what Verizon FIOS has done to Comcast in their territory; raid them of customers. Not so far...I have yet to see anything that looks like an upgrade to blast in ATL. Uverse has 18mbps in ATL, but comcast has 8 with a very short boost.
I would love to see them do the upgrades, but it seems that the southeast always takes a long long time to get done. | |

Seriously, I don't see why the caps don't double with the bandwidth, as they've obviously got the extra space given the speed increases (and, of course, the inevitable price hike). | |

| Re: Can hit my caps twice as fast now... The caps are not set in stone, nowhere does it state that the caps WON'T be changed in future. And are you saying that anyone who gets an increase in speed will automatically have a change in behavior? My speeds doubled recently due to upgrade, this doesn't mean I now play ffxi for 10-12hours a day and that my kids now play WOW 4-8 hours a day. MOST people will have the same amount of usage as before, they just do some things a bit faster then before. | |
