It was the uplink side and the recent adoption of Zyxel kit which made me wonder out loud to AA-Andrew earlier today regarding A&A bufferbloat experiences/testing on that side of things with the new modems.  You're an ISP that would have some clue in that regard and hence hopefully a bit of clout with the OEM to do things right (see baby jumbo frames support)  It's me being curious again...sorry!
