I can only answer the second part of your enquiry, although I'd comment that UBUNTU shouldn't matter ajot assuming you've got your NIC set up in a conventional manner. Of course you know that anyway.

The 20Mbps is routed differently from the 50Mbps service.

The former uses DOCSIS 1.x, the latter uses DOCSIS 3.0 and at this time thus different routers.

Finally at your end, a DOCSIS 3 capable modem is required. So that's the set of differences.
