So, small issues like that were not detectable at lower data rates, but now with the CGN3 pushing higher rates, attention to details, like ratings on connector cables, the quality of the connectors, etc, are warranted. Having a test platform that you know will support those higher data rates is another requirement. If you still have problems, can you post a description of the complete circuit, end to end.

The crazy thing is, I think you can still walk down to Best Buy today and buy a low-end laptop with a 10/100 wired NIC and a single-stream single-band 802.11n wifi card. And that hardware will... not be able to catch up with the 150+ megabit tiers. And then I'm sure someone will come to a forum and blame the CGN3 or Rogers. :)

 

That's the thing with tiers over 50-60 megabits. There's a LOT of consumer hardware out there that can't handle speeds higher than that. Routers, 10/100 NICs, 10/100 switches, single-band wifi cards, crappy Cat 5 cables, etc.
