This is pretty typical for 4 down and 1 up channels for me.
I have 50/10 business class, so I wonder what/if they will change it up to when they have deployed it? -- TorDek: "DSLR... Here, were not just experts... were also vindictive bastards..."  | |

 | | Hit your Comcap even faster! Now your download speeds and upload speeds can conspire together to hit your monthly bandwidth cap in half the time!
Comcap's 100 Mbps packages can already hit the bandwidth cap in 6 hours... so once Comcap rolls out symmetrical 100 Mbps you'll be able to hit your monthly quota in just 3 hours! What a deal!

Right now you can get a grossly overpriced 12/2 Mbps package for like $70 a month... anything faster than that hits three figures territory.

Right now you can get a grossly overpriced 12/2 Mbps package for like $70 a month... anything faster than that hits three figures territory. Business class is not the solution. When ATT announced caps I checked out both Comcast and U-Verse business class service before going to WOW residential service. Comcast was the cheaper of the two (Comcast 12/2 vs U-Verse 12/1.5) and after looking at the speeds I get with WOW, I'm sure the speeds with Comcast are higher than advertised. My U-Verse service always had speeds lower than the tier advertised. I had U-verse 3/1 and 6/1 and never got those speeds (they were 2.8/.9 and 5.7/.92). I have WOW 8/1 and get 8.5-9/1.1-1.2 for $10 less per month (when including the top tier phone services)!
If WOW ever caps, I will go to Comcast or WOW business service. U-Verse will never be able to match the speed/price ratio as long as they use aging copper to the home. And the prices aren't all that good either. | |

 | | Promotional Upgrade I recently noticed that my modem was bonding the upstream traffic, however, my speeds are still the same... I reckon that haven't changed the throughput cap. Coincidentally I received a call from Comcast saying that I was going to be upgraded to the next tier(from 12 to 20Mbps) for free and that a tech would need to go on-site to test it.
Regardless I took the offer... so we shall see what speeds I get this Friday. | |

although I don't see much of a speed difference This isn't a speed boost. it however will help nodes with high utilization on the upstream side -- You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape. | |

 Ulmo join:2005-09-22 San Jose, CA | Upstream bonding matter of fact and around for a while San Jose tech implied all SMC business routers (and straight out said mine) should have three upstream, as a rule. I've had bonded upstream for many months on my SMC. The only speed increase is with upstream powerboost, then it evens out to the quoted rate, but I think it's also more stable and has more headroom to work.
Apparently, this must be a "local" thing; San Jose is a million people, with probably a fair amount of DOCSIS 3 users in that pie, so massive generalizations from techs referring to "everyone" can easily be simply one city only with only those users using DOCSIS 3 modems, or even certain subbrands of DOCSIS 3 modems, and still be passable as being referred to as "everyone". | |

 myosh join:2001-05-03 Cupertino, CA 2 edits | Bonded upstream channels in Cupertino, CA 

Here are a couple of speed tests I just ran. I am on the Performance tier which is supposed to be a 12/2 connection and checked my modem config page (Motorola SB6120) and it looks like I have 3 bonded upstream and 4 bonded downstream channels.
The last time I checked was when I had the service installed and I distinctly remembered seeing the 4 bonded downstream channels but only 1 upstream channel. | |

 | | Upstream bonding in Raleigh/Durham Market The TWC new DOCSIS 3.0 upgrade in Durham NC is channel bonding 2 upstream and 4 downstream for me on the UBEE DDW3611 they are offering. Capped at 5mbps upload for their plans though. | |

 | | None Here Yet.. Been waiting for over 4 months now for DOCSIS 3.0 Network Upgrades and have yet to see anything. Extreme 50 is in my area and I can upgrade to it but there no point when I'm already downloading at the max on a DOCSIS 2.0 Network.
I'm in Port Huron, MI and have had a DOCSIS 3.0 modem for 4 months. I have Blast /w power boost. I've called Comcast a few times to ask about it and was told last month that we'd see upgrades happening this month or next and before this month started like at the end of last month the network went down for 4 hours or so for 2 days (Not the same days it was different days) and when I called Comcast to see what was going on the message said something about there Software/Server upgrades ect.
So I'm still hoping for some green lights. | |
