The cable ISPs can and will gate higher speeds (think anything even halfway tolerable) behind "triple play" packages.

  Which company does that? There aren't any plans like that in my area. Both Comcast and Verizon have gigabit a la carte here.

    In regions where you don't have that choice (no alternatives at all), IIRC Comcast will top out around 300/5 or 100/5.

    It must be awesome. I live in the 'ritzy' part of a capital city. I have 150/5 from Comcast, or 40Mb dsl not sure the upload) from Centurytel. I am really hopeful for 5g, or even Starlink. I really want more upload bandwidth.

      Do they offer higher speeds with a triple-play? That's what I was questioning. My point wasn't that I have good speeds. My point is that you can get the same speeds a la carte as you can with a package.
