1 edit | upstream bonding in NYC Just notice my modem is now bonding upstream and down stream channels . I,m on ultimate service 50/5

| Did you need to reboot your modem for it to show bonded channels? I am wondering if modems will just bond when told to without a restart or if a restart is needed. -- Usenet Block Accounts | Unlimited Accounts |

 | mine did the bonding without a reboot the modem is motorola sbg 6580 |

I'll have what they are having  |

 | reply to mckenna797 Hmmmm.... This is indeed good news! First we hear of this in Texas. Then we hear of this in NY. I wonder how long until other cities start to enjoy this Upstream bonding? Perhaps it will fix my issue! |

 | Yes and now too bad TW in NEO has a major outage right now... /o\ |

 | reply to mckenna797 maybe a sign we'll see more than 5mbit upload on the higher tiers soon! |

Another thing the symbol rate is 5120Ksym/sec in other modems I've seen is 2560Ksym/sec not only you modem is bonding upstream channels the symbol rate is higher.
A question for those who know: Is 5120Ksym/sec capable of 40.960Mbps on the upstream? Per channel? |

 thorin join:2007-11-08 Liberty, MO | I believe at 5120 ksym/sec one can achieve a theoretic limit of 30.72 Mbits/sec per upstream. |

And maybe all the advertisements for extreme in my area will be for real instead of a let down. I have had two appointments to have it hooked up and then they call and say it is not available after all. -- Fremont, Ohio Weather »www.Fremont-OH-weather.com

| reply to thorin said by thorin:I believe at 5120 ksym/sec one can achieve a theoretic limit of 30.72 Mbits/sec per upstream. that is at QAM64 (ATDMA) but two of the channels are QAM16 (TDMA) so technically they have about 100Mbits total on the upstream as the QAM64 (ATDMA) carriers have 30Mbits a piece and the QAM16 (TDMA) carriers have 20Mbits a piece. |

A question for those who know: Is 5120Ksym/sec capable of 40.960Mbps on the upstream? Per channel? Not on a single channel, for that you'd need 256QAM upstream. 5120 ksym/sec at 64QAM upstream only nets about 30 mbps.
This chart I made might help:

Basically you multiply the bits per symbol (controlled by the modulation type) x the symbol rate (controlled by the channel width). -- If it's important, back it up... twice. Even 99.999% availability isn't enough sometimes. |

 | reply to mckenna797 Where in Astoria are you getting uplink bonding? I'm 34th st and Ast blvd, no dice... |

Thanks!
Never seen that chart... I'll keep it handy  |

 kilrathi join:2005-04-22 Rockaway Park, NY | reply to mckenna797 I think upstream itself is not ready for all the channel bonding in nyc because ever since it kicked in i have terrible packet loss problem on the upstream at peak usage times. I really hate when they chew more than they can swallow. |

No, not all ATDMA channels are QAM64. See pic it's in QAM16. |

I'd figure at least one channel would be left D1.1 compatible (3.2 Mhz or 2560 Ksym/sec) for legacy devices like OCAP boxes, eMTAs, and other status monitoring related devices. Maybe there is and it's just not part of the bonding group...
It's possible with all those upstream channels turned up, some odd upstream signal quality issues (like clipping) have cropped up and it what is causing the packet loss.
Could be modem firmware related too.... I've seen some posts in the Comcast forum that mentioned that.
Edit: Then again there is a 6.4 Mhz carrier centered on 19 Mhz (channel is from 15.8-22.2Mhz) and another 6.4 Mhz carrier centered on 23.8 Mhz (channel is from 20.6-27 Mhz). Those aren't 6.4 Mhz apart, so some overlap would seem to be occurring. A 2.4 Mhz overlap between channels isn't good as far as I know. Could be firmware bug causing the channels to display incorrectly if there aren't any connection problems... -- If it's important, back it up... twice.
