10 mbps upload speed?

the "classic" 300/30 plan does not exist with cox anymore{so they keep telling me}, found this out when i was unwillingly switched from it to a 500/10 and the refuse to switch me back.

Just looking at the facts. If you want to compare apples and apples compare Cox fiber to FIOS fiber. BTW, I have FIOS.

If they are just watching Netflix you're correct.  Some people need more upload and its just a bummer there is no option for it unless you upgrade all the way up to a gig plan

Perhaps I am wrong, but can't you still get the Ultimate Classic 300 plan with a upload of 30Mbps as shown here? Oh and sorry if I came off as a Cox fan boy. 

I agree, 10Mbps upload isn't sufficient anymore.

FYI for those in fiber(FTTH) area like AZ, a new plan has launched. Essential 100 that is overprovisioned to 125Mbps down and 110Mbps up but YMMV. See here for thread.

yep, you are wrong, according to every cox call i have made recently, and thats been alot

Y? Unless your are video streaming, twitch or the like, even then THEY recommend 5 - 7.4 mbps upload

So the rest of the household shares the paltry leftovers while Steven consumes 50-75% during a stream?  This is, if Steven is even getting the 10 Mbps.

Maybe Steven should consume that upload speed during a time when the rest of the household doesn't need it. It's called proper planning.

Is your household still on a dial-up modem?  Families stopped clamoring for access 20 years ago.

Nope have had a cable modem since the 90;'s. I think i still have the old Toshiba PCX1100U modem somehere.
