    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.

          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.
