How old is "very old" and what you expect to fail?

When an ISP increases the speed, they just add additional downstream
channels which are bonded together to form one data stream. For
example, in the SB6141, the 8 bonded channels are theoretically good
for 343.1 Mbit/sec download speed. However, only a few modern modems
can bond 8 channels. 4 or less is more common for "very old" modems
such as the SB6121. It is therefore unlikely that at ISP can add more
channels to a "very old" modem that doesn't allow for more channels,
and therefore unlikely that anything will overheat.

Don't know about all that.

Read it again. It's quite clear (because I wrote it). It explains
why adding a channel can't overheat an old modem. If you require
clarification of any particular points, feel free to ask.

All I know is:

Hopefully, you know a little more than just that.

I like my current cable modem a lot.

However, you also haven't disclosed your modem maker or model number.
That's very suspicious. Is there something you're trying to hide?
Perhaps it's so old as to be considered unsupported by your service
provider?

And speed has been going up over the years.
So somehow the ISP _is_ increasing speed.

The modem speed is not increasing. Instead, you're cognitive
functions are slowing down, making everything appear to go faster. In
effect, you're operating in slow motion and getting slower every day.
Perception is everything.

Ubee cable modem.

That's a good start, but you seem to have a FoN (Fear of Numbers)
problem. Not to worry as it's a common problem. I suggest that you
immerse yourself in numbers for a while, which might alleviate the
symptoms.

Bye,

Keep trying.

Gave us:


Have you considered a bittorrent/utorrent scenerio ?

You're a goddamned idiot.

These kind of P2P are known to cause router crashes cause of high tcp
connection and/or udp ussage.

It can handle a thousand sockets at once. Your petty 200 torrent
tards ain't gonna crash it.

Your ISP may reset your ****ing ass though... idiot.

I would not be surprised if bittorrent creates a totally different picture
for you

You are a ****ing retard and EVERY causation you have EVER come up
with has been 100% wrong EVERY time, ALL the time, EACH TIME.

Stop spamming these groups with your sad examples of YOU breaking yet
another piece of gear, then blaming some aspect of the gear.

And NO, I do NOT mean by way of a ****ing torrent. I mean YOUR FAT
FINGERS!

It doesn't "fail to work", then you take it apart.

YOU take it apart, THEN it fails to work, THEN YOU want to blame some
other thing, when the OPERATOR is the CAUSE.

Funny that I have yet to fail at building a PC, and you have yet to
succeed.

Maybe it isn't your fat fingers... maybe you just looking at a piece
of equipment breaks it.

You are like some kind of eDruid... going around sacrificing
things.

Could just be a hardware if not protocol compatibility problem between
your home router and your ISP's networking devices...

It's processor will have to work harder, draws more power, it may
fail/overheat or the adapter may fail.

No faster than what the processor can do...
