So perhaps I should just wait this one out and see if it's mainly going to be on Comcast's end or Square's
yeah.. I think we're getting hit on multiple fronts right now. Had some big releases hit the markets, a lot of people cutting the cable cord and moving to streaming (Netflix has been fighting with several ISP's over throttling)--and XIV is getting another run of new/returning players right in the middle of restructuring it's network, and PS4 is gaining market share too and increasing their PSN load.

It all adds up to a fine mess in the US in general. Companies have waited way too long to upgrade equipment, and it's biting us in the butt now. I actually did some heavy digging a few weeks back over issues at my head end and we discovered my CMTS is hardware that dates back to 2001... and wasn't even fully DOCSIS 2.0 compliant. TWC is rolling out 3.0 level connections on hardware that is a decade or more out of date. BRILLIANT!
