This is what I kindly refer to as the "Comcast Be Good Stick". They're tyrants about things like data caps, speeds, etc. Then the fiber trucks roll in with a Ditch Witch and they're all of a sudden ready to play ball. The only thing is, they simply can't give a residential customer anything more than 6Mps up. Sure I can get 500Mpbs down but, honestly, anything after 200, I barely notice. I'm just not streaming 4k video or anything like that.

- lotsofpulp 4y agoI have never seen a cable ISP advertise upload, but the problem is enough people do not differentiate between a poor quality oversubscribed coaxial connection, and a high quality, low latency, symmetric fiber connection that would improve their backups, video calls, and file sharing. I would take a 100/100 fiber to the home connection than a “1Gbps” Comcast connection.
