DOCSIS 3's main advantage is Channel Bonding, which isn't needed for the products that are run on the 256 modem i.e. 2/10 and 20Mbit

The 256 is compatible with DOCSIS 2 which means it can still run on the overlay network if required (which is how some 20Mbit customers are on the new network without a D3 modem)
