I would assume that theres someone like bbking logging in to the servers and running a script that sends out the config files and reboots the modems. Once each area is complete I would guess that they will run some tests, possibly phone a few people see if alls gone ok the move on to the next area. This process will take some time.

So no doing the upgrade yourself will not be affected.

They would not have released the upgrade if the areas could not cope with it, there will have been many tests for this and if they have doubled the bandwidth that they give us then there has to be more availble now on the network, it would seem madness to run at a max of 3mb, My guess is that the network has a theorectical limit of 10mb now. (its used to be 3mb before the upgrades).
