ya, it all comes down to numbers. I think each downstream channel can do something like 55mbits and shubs 1 and 2 can only use 8 channels down so 8x55=440mbits. If you have got a 350mbit connection which is provisioned at 400mbits you are pretty much asking to have all of those 8 channels to yourself which isn't going to happen. I think most areas are going to be on a 20 or 24 channel bonding group and the shub3 will load balance across those channels which gives you a greater chance of achieving max speed.
