AT&T and Cox are screwed Nether one can compete with the 137 triple play. Uverse physically cannot deliver 30/30 while delivering HD and telephone and i doubt Cox would deploy DOCSIS 3 just to sink this.

100mbs is a tough thing to do. Not necessarly technically, but people are always expecting improvement in the internet speed area.
After 100mbs, it gets sticky. 99% of all ethernet cards out there are rated at 100, which means they cant get any higher than that. People would have to upgrade TONS of personal equipment (not only multiple aspects of hardware, but some OS software too) to get above 100. |

so you cant pull all 100Mbps who cares its like being on any 100Mbps lan but you can share stuff with your buddies down the street at full wire speed
and yea show me any PC made in the last 10 years that DIDNT have atlest a 10/100 nic in it |

Beyond that ... many wireless routers - unless 'N' or better, are 54 or 108Mbps - and that doesn't include overhead.
Many wireless routers also have 100Mbps ports (haven't seen many that have GigE ports attached, unless they're the WAN port. |

I'm not in the Alexa top 500. And I'm plugged in to gigE and not colo'ed.
And why do you assume I'd only have one connection going at any given time? |
