Sonos devices and apps used uPnP. The router was not involved.


Got that one as well a bunch of time with 2 fake dutch inventors. Reported it, got denied because Youtube thinks it's fine to promote a scam like that.


Got a link to the ads?


Replied to you elsewhere but this might be a German version of the ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WorrpfjAYdc


That's the one


> Ah yes, if line doesn't up and to the right then it must be bad.

For life expectancy, yes.


Quality-adjusted maybe?


It can also be read as 1/3 are walking:

> The remaining 1/3 are those who live close enough to the primary school that they are more likely to walk.


Very probably.


Didn't that halve the cursor speed as well?


Steam downloads are plain HTTP in separate file chunks. Easy to cache and load balance across connections.


They are also slow as dirt.


1000/200 per segment of course. So in a typical HFC network that can be shared between 40-400 homes.


If you try to squeeze in as many endpoints as possible, sure.

With a competently designed network, you wouldn't have anywhere near that many in a segment.

I'm on a 300/60 cable connection via my employer, and I have never had my connection test below 360/70. This is in an an area densely populated with apartment buildings, where cable is still the best option for most people, with some fiber rolling out.

I am however moving to a 100/100 fiber connection (plenty fast for my needs, with the faster upload speed), due to a change in employment that is not of my own choice. So I don't consider myself biased in favor of my current employer ;-)


60mbps upload on DOCSIS?? That's fancy. I feel like my 20mbps is luxurious, although it's laughable when you consider the fact that it's 800mbps down.


We support up to 1Gbps/100Mbps as a standard subscription on cable, with symmetrical connections available for an additional fee, except on 1Gbit, where the fastest upload available is 500Mbps.

Cable is alive and well, if properly maintained and upgraded.


I'm guessing it's a relatively small network, considering what I know about DOCSIS and how much would have to be upgraded to support uploads like that.


It covers the majority of urban and suburban Denmark, plus a majority of exurbs, anywhere an "antenna association" used to or still exists today and almost every apartment building. They are connected with coax through either us or one of our competitors, and there's mandated open access to coax.


SQM with Cake is a life saver in any kind of network with bufferbloat. The per-host/IP fairness is the cherry on top.


My cable modem is in bridge but I can also reach its web interface the management IP. In that case, you should find out if the modem is vulnerable because an exploited modem could still be messing with your traffic.


Messing how?

I mean, yes, it is a problem, but so is any networking device anywhere on the Internet — as soon as the traffic leaves my network, all bets are off.

The point is not to allow operator-managed crappy devices (like cable modems) into my network.


Geekbench just lists the stock speeds for the chip, not the actual speeds used for the benchmark.


Yep I think that's clear in the Geekbench interface.
