* 2.5GPON isn't symmetric. * DSL and cable can be symmetric.* Business reasons - providers don't want you hosting content at home, they want you hosting content in their data centers so they can charge for that space. So when a provider gets a 100/100 from a telco, it uses 90/10 dl to feed it's tails and 10/90 to push content back to the net of its server array.

I understand there are technical reasons why on DSL and cable you end up with asymmetric, but those don't apply to Ethernet delivery. ~Seth
