i doubt it would be all that much faster... the signal will still only go as fast as the modem and lines going into the house allow

It wont make a difference... is this for Residential Services? If so then Rogers Cable is offering the Extreme Service 5 mbit, thus the 10 mbit standard wiring is sufficient.
