It's really not worth doing. The difference in speeds were not drastically different and the best thing was the no traffic management. Some people are struggling to keep there modems online just with the 10 and 20 mb macs. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Max download I ever got was 3.5 Mbps down, with 20mb I can get 2.5mbps. Not a lot of difference considering the risk of sticking out like a sore thumb.
