| Who's line?
I wonder who's line they used. They obviously didnt lay 1 cable between switzerland and california...
so if they used exisiting infrastructure, minus the their own routers [10 GbE server adapter, Cisco 7600 Series Routers] why cant the normal joe get this kind of bandwidth?

Re: Who's line?
It's on the Internet2 Lines, I think they're provided by the "Abilene" network... www.internet2.edu. I'm on I2 right now, but for some reason I only get 70 or so MB/s to I2, and only about 50 MB/s to I1. Oh well. |

Well, it's obviously important because eventually this technology will filter down to the public Internet when it becomes cost effective. |

| too bad we will never see those speeds .... :(
The general public will never get this type of net speed
to there house. This type of connection speed is meant
to be used for the backbone providers.
Also, the equipment costs are very high. Most likely you
will get another 3 MBs D/L. The big telcos and cable
companies with open the upstream speeds in the coming
months. Don't think its going too be a big move. Most
likely in the next 18 months you will see speeds
around 9-10 mbps download and 700K-1 mbps upstream.
Don't forget ... your bill will go up too ... |

Never is a looooong time. These speeds will happen for the public eventually. Maybe not in our lifetime.... |
