Hello Jon22

Traffic in the area does tend to build up in the evening as your graphs suggest but overall it is not at a level where we would escalate yet, we will continue to monitor it. At the moment I do not see any plans for upgrade work for the upstream, normally it is not the mod level that matters or the number of channels for lag or speed it is the free capacity of the network, please ask for updates at at time as these things can change and we will be happy to keep you informed.
A little bit confused by this. I thought if there was a higher order modulation on the upstream channels, this would increase the capacity of each channel? That coupled with further bonding of channels would increase the free capacity of the network?
