- Doubling downoload speed
-
It does not make much sense in the USA. The speed limit is not on ISP/customer bandwidth. It is limited by througput of routing servers, firewalls, proxies e.t.c.
If average download speed is 50KByte/sec that rougly means that 500kbit/sec downstram would be enough.
Even if someone needs multiple downloads simultanously (I bet that need or computer literacy of average user is not on that level yet) then do you belive that someone would do 3-6 heavy downloads?
I'd say that it's the time companies should reconsider upgrading upstream speeds to provide better perr-to-peer capabilities rather than tinkering with useless downstream speeds at anything above 1Mbit/sec. For that to became useful, the USA infrastructure has long way to go to catch up with level of Korean infrastructure.
Good luck. - Posted by: FirstNLastN Posted on: 05/11/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
