Ouch.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Damn Che, that's a crying shame! They should be paying YOU.

Wow! What is that T1? T2?

I'm way rusty on my data/com backbone lessons, but I believe that is in the T3, OC1, or wireless running higher end of 802.11G speed rate.

Wow! What is that T1? T2?

18686 KBPS is 18.24 MBPS, so you are getting your money's worth.

Not to bad for us being out in the sticks.

 

[Al Smith]

Not as fast as I had thought

 

[stehansen]

Maybe they are measuring in Canadian kb/s.

This is about as fast as it gets for 18 bucks a month

 

[Al Smith]

Hmm

 

[SkwerI]

This is about as fast as it gets for 18 bucks a month

I wish mine was that fast and I'm embarrased to tell you what I've paid for DSL for the last 4 years. 4-5 months ago I finally got on a package deal and got it down to $25 per month but within a week it seemed to get slower.

In this conversation of cable speed ,I might bring up the subject of voice over IP.

I got in a little tiff with the phone company over prices and went total cable perhaps 6 months ago.It was not without difficulties.It took persistance but it works just dandy now and perhaps half of what it had cost before.

While the use of just cable tv and internet had proven relatively trouble free,the addition of voice over IP had it's problems.The dummies from the cable company could not find the problem until they brought in an expert who found a bad connection within 15 minutes of trouble shooting.

I suppose you get what you pay for.Nine dollar an hour help is just nine dollar an hour help.

 

[stehansen]

You have cable out where you live Al? Where we are the the cable co. doesn't go outside the city limits.
