Recently I got email from Comcast telling me that they were going to increase the speed of my Internet connection. The package that I purchase includes their Blast Internet tier. In the past, they rated Blast as "up to 45Mbps". The email said that the new limit was going to be up to 105Mbps. I did some performance testing at that time and I did see numbers well above 45Mbps. I can also go into the status page of the Comcast supplied cable modem and see that there are 8 channels bonded on the downstream side with 4 on the upstream which can easily handle 105 Mbps. I have two questions though:
1. Has anybody else gotten a similar upgrade from Comcast recently? 2. What is Comcast's angle? I have no other residential option for high speed Internet in my community so why would they upgrade my speed for no reason?
