This seems to be another issue which is unfair for this Super Upgrade deals. Some older 512K users have 1024 ports and will only get 0.8M speeds when upgrading to 1M. Some newer 512K / 1M users have 2048 ports and some have their accounts capped higher and can get 1.1-1.3M speeds. Same package with different results.

Actually, they will say that you are getting 80% so its ok. Of course, if the disconnections are due to a faulty port, they wil change it. But they can actually just set you back to 1024 again and not necessarily higher.

Even if the technical people set you to a higher port speed, it will still depend on your acount cap. That's why the acount cap was introduced  in the first place, ie to avoid users asking technical people directly to set a higher port speed.

It seems that TM may be periodically resettting account caps back to normal so you may find your speeds drop back down irrespective of your port setting. has anyone experienced this situation?
