Hopefully it will just be a case of a software upgrade!

This is total rubbish!!
Have you bothered to read the DOCSIS 3 specification sheet??
I can tell you now that upload AND download on DOCSIS 3 can do a HELLA lot more than what VM will supply, and lets face it, the up/down ratios are pretty rubbish to say the least!
Take into account the overheads, and 50Mb down with a 1.5Mb upload will be damn near crippled, it will need AT LEAST a 5Mb upload speed to be able to cope properly!
And also, DOCSIS 3 allows for CHANNEL BONDING, try searching for this too as it is very informative!
