the extra capacity is definitely there now that they have done the work which you have eluded to above but at the moment it is a question of how much because recently they removed stm on the upstream and they probably want a period of time to accurately assess how much more bandwidth/traffic it is costing them. Tbh I don't see any upstream increases (e.g. to 10:1) on the current system/packages as we currently have them and I think we'll have to wait till to they announce the docsis 3.1 rollout later this year or early next year before we see something exciting like 500/50.
