freeflir29 0 #4 April 5, 2002 Quoteany chance you can open up my upstream on my DSL Clay?Actually that's the one bad drawback of DSL. The upstream is stuck at a 64K max. Depending on about a million factors you might get up to 8 Meg downstream though......"I'm a danger to myself and everyone around me!"-Clay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #5 April 5, 2002 QuoteThe upstream is stuck at a 64K max.Maybe for the relays in your area. We can get up to about 1.5mb up and down in North Texas. The one I set my folks up with is 768k up and down. Kinda nice, with the 100mb network I wired it moves faster then the campus network."Homer Simpson, smiling politely."

Here I get about 1.1 down but avg about 98 up....If only the SDSL providers didn't go belly up :(At least I have a static IPbaby's hungry and the money's all gone. the folks back home don't want to talk on the phone.

AggieDave 6 #7 April 5, 2002 You know, you could always just lease a fractional T-1...or get an OC3. Then you'd have a seriously large pipe to push stuff through. *drool* Just think about how fast you could post and how many posts you could get a hour with one of those. That'd make Clay look like a pethetic ameature..."Homer Simpson, smiling politely." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indyz 1 #8 April 5, 2002 We have an OC12 connection between UIUC and UIC for offsite backups. Between the two campuses we have mirrors of any software you could ever want. Totally killer.--Brian Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freeflir29 0 #11 April 5, 2002 I am suprised that you guys are getting 1.1 on a residential hook up. The only people that get that around here are businesses that pay extra for HDSL I think it is. It's a lot more than the $40 a month for residential service. Of course you can always pay $100 for ISDN service. It's amazing how much 128K of dedicated service costs you......"I'm a danger to myself and everyone around me!"-Clay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #12 April 5, 2002 Oh, but it costs a crapload..."Homer Simpson, smiling politely." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GrumpySmurf 0 #15 April 5, 2002 I just reviewed a spec for software that will include host side support for OC-192. We are talkin' 17280 DS0's (or 540 DS1's - a DS1 is the link spec overwhich T1 would operate). *MORE POWER*!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyMan 7 #16 April 5, 2002 Yeah, and you better hope you can troubleshoot problems yourself.The tech support sucks.upload speed isn't THAT much of an issue for me.
