Lots of people had the 100mbs upload today. 

but from what I have been reading those on RFoG connections will not be getting the 100mbs upload due to the limitations of the technology used..

Does the HUB5X not use this, and it has a 10Gb/s port so not sure how it cannot get 100Mb/s upload as you need a certain amount of upload speed to download?

When VM did the 2.2Gb/s tests (that may launch sometime) I wonder how much upstream was used during the download tests, I bet it would be over 50Mb/s.

Correct for now.

Nah, it comes in a fair bit below 50 Mb/s. The RFoG customers don't get the Hub 5x, that's for the XGSPON trialists.

TBH I just Googled it and seen the same yellow connector on a little box.

I am in neither area mine is still Coax and no Pseudo VOIP landline.

I'm a RFoG customer and have the hub5?

Did you reboot?

Yeah about 30 minutes ago? There is no sync speed or anything on my router though, it’s totally different from other virgin hubs I’ve had

Think you missed the 'x' at the end of the name of the Hub. The 5 and the 5x are not the same thing.
