I wont bore you with the technical details but qam64 is 50% faster than qam16. The idea is that more channels increases the amount of available bandwidth and couple that with increased modulation increases it further. So.........going from 2 upstreams at qam16 (which is what everyone used to be on) to 4 upstreams on qam64 triples (x3) the amount of available bandwidth to you. It sounds great but isn't going to do anything for you unless you had issues to start off with (which I never have) plus it gives them plenty of leg room for future upgrades.
