Or is VM buffering and then chucking it down at "up to 50 Mbps"?

Nah sadly not. Buffering heh.
It is somewhat scary though that, as per my above quote, VM totally ignored it to the point where they are deploying DOCSIS 1.0 upstream channels which can only shift about 4.4 - 4.5Mbps of data. 200Mbps down, 4.5Mbps up.
Just goes to show how little they cared about this stuff previously and how much work there is going to be to do to bring some areas up to scratch for a potential 10Mbps per modem tier. Tech support inform this is a conscious choice and it can only be deduced that they are running at this very low level out of necessity because the local network can't handle better.
Lots to do, a few issues that need some work.
