Meanwhile no mention about their limited upload speeds.

I'm really just watching out for any upload speed increases. At this point, I don't care about download speed increases, I just want upload speeds to increase. The only mention of it in that article is their plans to implement DOCSIS 4.0 later this year, which should increase upstream and downstream capacity. However, still no mention of how long it may take to be fully implemented.

None that article, but check my other reply and check your plan. You may be pleased, I was.

The marketing fluff doesn't, but they actually did increase upload speeds. Mine went from 10 to 20 up. And here is the DSL reports forum thread from when this round started.

Also, they are testing larger increases. I could get 100 up today, if I had a supported modem.

So, check your actual plan and modem to see what you have now.
