stackrainer Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) I'm getting my internet upgraded in a bit to 20 some mbps. At the moment I only have 3mbps with a docsis 2.0 modem but I am getting a docsis 3.0 modem today. So I was going to test to see if there was any difference in speed with the 2 different modems even at 3 mbps. I was curious and I think I remember someone else being curious. Anyways I'll post my results. Thought you guys might be interested. Before: Edited March 21, 2013 by stackrainer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonerboy779 Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 I would say no difference unless your docsis 2.0 modem is very poor quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackrainer Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Well so much for that. The new internet plan got enabled when I enabled the new modem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyper Threaded Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 You may not notice a speed increase but, the connection will still be more stable. DOCSIS 3.0 connects over four frequencies for upstream and downstream, where DOCSIS 2.0 only has one frequency for each. Since ISPs are constantly upgrading speeds, it is better to upgrade for long run. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
