EDIT: I guess it can get a bit confusing with all those different "Giga-names" now:



GigaPower - AT&T

Operation GigaSpeed - SuddenLink

GigaZone - Paul Bunyan Communications

GigaSphere - The NCTAs new brand name for DOCSIS 3.1 technology

does this mean ultimate is going to be cheaper since it right around $99?

Phoenix, AZ dvd536 Premium Member Re: What's the ACTUAL penalty price without TV? yeah. they suck all the value out of it by requiring TV[probably the top tier with all 4 premiums!]



doesn't really bother me since they're going to cherrypick the area[s] they want.

my guess: scottsdale

Brooklyn, NY tmc8080 Member about time more cable companies should be transitioning to ftttp infrastructure. docsis will only go so far.. and the upstream of coax won't be able to keep up with the downstream without it costing as much or more than fiber anyway (such as the long past due diminishing returns of DSL)

Verizon FiOS uses fiber to the home, but (currently) does use coaxial cabling inside the home (though not DOCSIS, as you said). The short lengths used there can support up to a few GHz in bandwidth.

According to » www.cox.com/aboutus/poli ··· lans.cox (your location has to be set for Phoenix to see the Gig information) the cap for Gig will be 1 TB. Cox doesn't seem to enforce their caps though other than sending you an email.

·WOW Internet and..

brad152 Member Yawn Call me when Cox can deliver their currently advertised speeds 24/7. I just tried them again once they upped the 50Mbps to 100Mbps in Downtown Phoenix.



In biltmore:



- The TV still craps out when there's high DOCSIS usage in the area (thank you SDV!)

- The Internet STILL drops to just just a few Mbps during peak usage (hey this time they were able to sustain 9Mbps instead of the 2Mbps i was experiencing before)



I'm just glad i never cancelled my CenturyLink as even though it's only 40Mbps i actually get what i'm paying for 24/7 for a reasonable price. Cox can shove it until they can get their reliability in order.

brad152,



Centurylink has already deployed 1 gig service in Vegas, and expanding in the fiber built area. I understand Cox Communications will be pushing the 1 gig service here shortly. I guess Google's 1 gig deployment has ISP bring the service customers want.



Hopefully speeds will increase @ a price customers can afford. When 1 gig service in Japan's countryside is less than than $60 a month we are getting closer to international rates. Japan's outlying area density is similar to a subdivision in Phoenix or Las vegas. Country side is far less populated...
