I think the big guys do that Too. I remember getting a 100mb Comcast
coax line, and it testing at 110mb,so the tech could point at his laptop
and say O look!
I set the queue about 1-2mb higher than the plan rate.

TCP/IP overhead is 7% so we just add 10%. 10Mbps would be 11Mbps.

Overhead depends on packet size and who's exactly measuring at what at
what layer, but probably about 5-10%. I bump customers up 10% so on a
10meg they'll see something like 10.1 or 10.2. I know Verizon FiOS does
this too. I figure if it saves even a handful of phone calls per year
then it w
On a 25 Mbps plan for example, we provision the speed bucket to 28 Mbps
flat. We use Preseem for the rate limiting. Generally on a speedtest, we
see 26-27 Mbps on tests when provisioned for 28 Mbps on a 25 Mbps plan. If
you provisioned to 26 Mbps, you would probably see exactly 25 Mbps.
