I knew they were going to go with Florida..with that leaked announcement.

My only question..Will the upload remain the same at 5meg, being that there are now docsis 3 modems out (Arris modems now even)

I hope Chicago ain't to far behind..but at $150 month..you can count me out. :hmm:
Me too. Because their std speed pkg with powerboost gives me all the speed I need for any reasonable size download and even the upload works well for transferring relative pics and videos to web sites.

The 50/5 pkg would be good for those working from home and constantly uploading large engineering drawings or PR videos, etc. A nice pkg for corporate warriors.

Of course, it is a little pricey for those who just want their P2P music & movie sharing(read stealing) apps to work quicker.
So you think ALL people who use torrents "steal"? That's kinda bullheaded. Hell when I downloaded the Metal Gear Solid 4 demo off the Playstation Network for Playstation 3, Konami used p2p.

Thank the aldermen for dividing up Chicago into discrete "single cable company" only areas.

Mostly along the lakefront....

I'm retired and never worked for a telecom or cable company. And I have investments in hundreds of companies world wide. 539 companies as of 8 A.M. today. [att=1] I have no special interest in telecom companies other than the small piece they play in my total portfolio.

too true. at that price point INFRINGERS (read not thieves), may as well stay with a less costly, slower connection and spend the difference on legal, licensed downloads.

unless of course they don't like DRM; or the inconvenience; or installing another app; or paying too much; or having a very limited selection....]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20518304 Wed, 21 May 2008 15:27:40 EDT Re: Upload speed? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20517966 CUBS_FAN :

Chicago might just be not too far behind because Comcast is thirsty for money and just loves charging us higher than any other state. I can see them charging the Chicagoland $200 bundled with Digital Cable and Digital Voice. It'll probably cost about $150 for everyone else :mad:]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20517966 Wed, 21 May 2008 14:22:33 EDT Re: Upload speed? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20517629 TK Junk Mail :

patcat88 - check your facts, if that were so then how would 100 people divide the 300 and still get a 50Mbps Connect
Oversubscription.

Right now with DOCSIS1.x/2.0 systems you have 100 users sharing a 38mbps downstream channel, even with users being able to consume up to 16mbps of that bandwidth (with Blast!).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20517619 Wed, 21 May 2008 13:18:42 EDT Re: Upload speed? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20517596 BSD24 :

It is capable of providing at the least 300Mbps Down. I know the Upload speed is planned (probably after a year maybe of a launch) to be available to be changed to 50Mbps Up with Docsis 3.0, and maybe even higher as more testing is done.
300 down is PER NODE. Its like Comcast releasing a 40 down plan on DOCSIS 1 or 2 equipment. Ain't happening.
patcat88 - check your facts, if that were so then how would 100 people divide the 300 and still get a 50Mbps Connect and when Comcast promises eventually having a tier (probably for businesses and heavy residential users) for 150Mbps Down??? Never will there be 2 houses per node! Never will there be 6 houses per node. Currently there are areas with 200+ users per node.

tshirt - no with DOCSIS 3.0 there is much higher bandwidth. Comcast is still testing it. It is capable of providing at the least 300Mbps Down. I know the Upload speed is planned (probably after a year maybe of a launch) to be available to be changed to 50Mbps Up with Docsis 3.0, and maybe even higher as more testing is done. Same thing happened when Fios was released for the first time in my area. They have changed their Down and Up speed combonations about 5 times. 50Mbps down is alot.

I loved having 20Mbps Down 5Mbps up with Fios before. But Verizon's Customer Service is never there, you have to wait 3 hrs before reaching a rep (I finished watching a movie on demand before rep answered), billing is only opened at certain times and their automated system likes to mis-route everyone just about everytime you call. You end up at DSL support which Verizon can't handle, you get a recording saying they are too busy to handle your call at this time, and to try your call again later. I will never switch back to Verizon again!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20517190 Wed, 21 May 2008 12:06:08 EDT Re: Upload speed? http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20517057 tshirt :
