If you uncap it they can have you arrested for wire fraud and theft of services. viGeek 09-17-2002, 01:01 AM It is very possible to uncap, and its not a very hard process. It really all depends on which cable modem you use, and what firmware version it has. However doing this, is ILLEGAL, no you will not get arrested, you will however have to pay a small fine, and could result in your account termination. what cable modem do you have(motorolla etc) YUPAPA 09-17-2002, 01:10 AM Hi... I didn't know it was illegal... and my cable modem is provided by my ISP. YUPAPA 09-17-2002, 01:11 AM Originally posted by Samuel You're getting what you paid for at 120kb download, and 22 to 45 up.

Now first off you are limited to the speed on the other end, mabey its capped half the time. Finaly 50 - 120kbytes is about right, at least the 120. I mean, technically you should get about 180, but the point is, its not that far off. YUPAPA 09-17-2002, 01:40 AM OK, I switch to OC-192 tomorrow morning... good night! :sleeping: :angel: |
