How will multiple users impact on the speed of cable modem?
Time Warner cable modems can operate up to a total of 27 Mb/s on a given sub network, with no noticeable impact with multiple users. After that point, as total bandwidth is allocated evenly among users, a degradation will be noticed. The network is engineered however, to always provide faster than ISDN speed. Should the cable modem business grow to the extent that there are more customers requesting service than the allocated bandwidth can accommodate, the cable operator will open-up another channel for the service.
