Comment on Comcast resists call to stop its misleading “10G Network” claims | Comcast renamed its whole network "Xfinity 10G" despite cable's slower speeds.

Coax can do much more, it can also run symmetrically vs the asymmetric, slow af upload channel that makes it feel like garbage that they give us.

Upgraded to Comcast Business with 200mbps upload for work, finally feels like I have actual broadband, those upload speeds are brutal.

Your right it will, the problem is the current infrastructure cannot support it.

  No, because they’re milking their old infra as much as they can, and not properly supporting modern technology.

    Not milking it at all, it’s just a giant undertaking to upgrade millions of miles of plant.

    Both can be true. It’s a massive effort to upgrade the infrastructure. Comcast will squeeze every drop from the existing plant, then hem and haw for a few years while service suffers, before actually committing to the massive effort.
