Not my post, but I also have 105mbps. In my neighborhood, the 50mbps connections share a node, while the 105mbps is on a different node.

Between 5pm and 11pm, the whole network gets over-saturated, except for the 105's.

That seems to contradict the article. If they really do need to wire your cable to some other piece of equipment then perhaps the field tech is there for a good reason.
