Re: comcast small business pro package

Small business customers (pro subscribers) are treated the exact same way as "standard" customers (silver subscribers). It seems they even have the same limits - although since the limits are secret, no one knows for sure.

You know, everybody keeps talking like there really are defined limits, and Comcast is just not telling us. Has anybody given thought to the idea that perhaps they just target the highest percentile of users? Perhaps they take the top 0.5%, and mark them as 'excessive'.

Just a thought.

Won't there always be a top X percent? Do the top X percent always have a negative impact on their neighbor's performance? Isn't network performance more a function of number of users per port/card/CMTS than any single customer's use? Aren't some customers (like pros) expected to be the highest percentile, since they pay extra for business use?

I belive that that is the point that TheJaded was trying to make. At least that's what I read into it.
