At New Work City, we found that the upstream bandwidth on our TWC cable modem was being maxed out at times, and that was causing problems for everybody on the downstream side. TWC only offers 5 Meg upstream Max, so we had to add a second cable modem and a load balancing router. That seems to have taken care of the problem for the time being. I was able to find this out through the bandwidth monitoring built into our Meru wireless controller.
The best solution would be to get fiber into the building, but that is cost prohibitive at this point, even though we are just one block away from 32 Avenue of the Americas, one of the central NAPs in NYC.
