"Enhanced" D3.1

So, AT&T's "5Ge"... aka 4G with a buzzword name. (I laughed for hours when I saw that on an iPhone 8! driving through KY)

We don't have "enhanced" D3.0. We have D3.0 with more than THE MINIMUM 4x4 channels. DOCSIS 3.1 specifies a f***ing MINIMUM!!!!!!! of 2x2. There is nothing in the entire history of the universe stopping anyone from making a modem with MORE THAN THE MINIMUM channels. Holy Shit! do I hate marketing.

Enumerate the carriers using even one full 192MHz channel, much less, two of any size.

Cable ops are lab-testing 'enhanced' DOCSIS 3.1

Yes, it's really cool what they are trying to do here with their 29 year old coax (this neighborhood) but what bothers me with cable are the upstream speeds. You have to take a more expensive subscription with download speeds you do not really need just to have decent upload speeds.
