Can't really say much about this part as probably TMI, beyond that I suspect Pierre was referring to DOCSIS 3.1-ready equipment along with 'other' upgrades. The plans as they stand are for deployment of more DOCSIS 3.0 downstreams and this has kicked off already, with 600Mb-ready network coming via more of the same.

That ignores a number of issues preventing more efficient use of the current spectrum. VM's upstream ratios are not due to a lack of upstream split.
As far as VM go though it's not really an issue. There won't be a DOCSIS 3.1 transition for a while yet. Kit is going in that is ready for it but plans still focus around DOCSIS 3.0, not to mention that major network upgrades start soon per comments in the thread about massive network upgrades

A guy making a first post on the forum predicting a near-tripling of VM's speeds downstream and huge increases upstream?
Clearly legit.
VM have no need to go ridiculous, they're already #1 in 95% of their covered areas.
