RE: New (a lot faster) fiber networking
Tell me about it Zippy. I had to get on the internet via ADSL1 (outdated hardware ftw) till last year. Fibre is out of the question, and Cable, well, never could convice my father to upgrade.
Last year my ex-ISP (horrribbleeeee) swapped the local central finally with a vDSL+ one, wich made my internet go from 6mb/s to 30mb/s. Half a year later, you can guess it, we swapped vDSL to Cable. ADSL stats: 6.70mbit/s down, 0.8mbit/s up, ping of 50 - 70 to a local (here in Holland) server. Contract being "up to" 20mbit/s down and 1 up. VDSL+ stats: at first 25mbit/s down, and 2.7mbit/s up with a ping of 25ms - 35ms to a local server here in Holland. Shortly after they raised the "step in" speed to 30mbit/s, while the upload didn't change. Contract didn't change. Long story short, I complained, and had problems for over 4 years. Because of that, they swapped me to vDSL+ for free of charge, and the contract wouldn't change. (So we paid 20€ for 30mbit down, 3mbit up. Effectively we had 28mbit down and 2.8mbit up) Cable stats: 40mbit/s down, 4mbit/s up, ping of 11ms . As I had no indication of the speedloss there is to the front door, I rang 'em up, and got convinced that I'd atleast have about 90% of the contract speed. Wich isn't to bad, wich would mean I would have about 36mbit down, and about 3.6mbit/s up. Effectively: |
