It does it even when I'm only sending short (text-only of course)
replies to usenet.

Upload speed is a mere 3.14 mbps. Download is 71.38.

My ISP is moving to DOCSIS 3.1 though, and if I get a new DOCSIS 3.1
capable cable modem, those speeds would change to:

Download: up to 500 Mbps
Upload: up to 500 Mbps

with no increase in monthly ISP fees.

I would need to get both a new cable modem (and my ISP is very specific
about which one to get) as well as a new router. Also, the update to
DOCSIS 3.1 has been put on hold because the contractor they're using is
waiting for a license from the state (Oregon).
