    Availability in your area?  You should be able to "shop" within your Cox account.

    As per here looks like only AZ has 2Gbps service as of right now. Also, you need to use a PW8 Panoramic gateway, however that may change in the future.

      We have the same service available in Omaha - at least in my area of town. Requires the PW8 and is 2Gbps down and 100 Mbps up.

        Thanks for the update. So that makes two areas so far that has it. Anyone else?

      Did you read the thread I posted? It showed someone(causefx) posting 2Gbps/100Mbps service over DOCSIS/HFC. It was also confirmed by _Luke, who is a employee. Most 2Gbps service is fiber but it is available over HFC in some parts of AZ.

        No, I didn't read the thread you posted.  I guess we'd need to define "2 Gbps."  Is it 2 Gb up and down or just a "hybrid" 2 Gb?  I think the attraction to 2 Gb would be the upload but capping at 100 Mb seems like a scam.
