Yes, since the main service tier doubled from 25 Mbps to 50 Mbps (some
went to 105 Mbps) that means DOCSIS 2.0 devices were no longer up to the
task. If you got an email like that you had a D2.0 device and needed a
D3.0 device. A side benefit is the device either now or very soon supports
native dual stack.=20
