| why would i need 6.63 Gigabits per Second
my 4.8mbps is just as good pages would load @ the same time as the 6.63Gbps. it would bacuse the Server dose not have the same speed as the 6.63Gbps speed so it would take the server 6.63 gbps too for it to load faster | |
|
| | | Indeed who cares.. If this was something like 10 GB/s THEN i would care.

Can you say fiber optics? | |
|
| | | | Re: *YAWN* They did transfer 10GB/s but the overhead of IP does not allow one to utilized the full 10GB/s for user data. The limitations are the end-machines adapters and not Internet2 backbone.
Next, it does effect you indirectly since the traffic utilitzed by the Internet2 community is not being use on the regular Internet. So all those students and professors on-campus are transferring data without effecting our bandwidth depending on the particular institution's policy for their Internet2 traffic. I see the cable traffic pattern change in my area when the off-campus students arrive for school. | |

Chesterfield, MO | Why does the bill have to go up? It makes no sense. The bills have been staying the same or going down while the speeds are going up. That's always been the case with technology. More for less.
Four years ago it cost $75/month for a 1.5Mbps/256K cable connection in my area. Now it's $39/month for 3/256.
DSL used to be $50/month for "best effort" 1.5. Now it's $26/month for the same service with faster services being announced for not that much more. | |

| | | An IEEE Spectrum article within last couple months concludes that bandwidth in wired, local wireless and wide-area wireless communications has followed Moore's Law, just like the number of transistors on a chip.
And everybody projects the trends to continue for decades, even without the possibility "paradigm-shifting" technologies.
So, whatever you can afford today, expect to get 2x more in 3 years, 10x more in 10 years, etc.
Personally, I'm gaga for gigabits.
I want infinite real-time HDTV selection. Actually, this only needs a high-bandwidth pipe and fast switch, and I can get by with 25 Mbps or so. So, this will be practical next decade.
I want Library of Congress-researched tutorials prepared in real time to explain the answers to my dumbest questions. Well, a really fast database engine at the central server could presumably create the content and forward it as an HDTV stream for the same measly 25 Mbps, but for a large number of users, it's probably necessary to ship the raw data and let the distributed 300 GHz computers do the data crunching about 20 years from now.
And I want enough bandwidth for the virtual reality implants that will be waiting for me in the nursing home.
On second thought with 6 Gbps coming in only 30 years (based on 6 Mbps today), I hope I'm not ready for managed care by then!
Otoh, imagine all the privacy that can be invaded with all the internet cam and RFID traffic that will be available.

kudos:3 | Re: Intresting!! The people developing the technology have no say in how fast your Cable is. They simply want to develop new and exciting technology. To understand why broadband in our country is so far behind, you have to understand economics, because the technology is very much there. We should not and will not stop development of technology just because it isn't profitable for telecommunications companies to deploy it.
Regulation of the industry, while helpful to some degree, does drive down the price of broadband and makes it difficult for providers to expand. Now, I'm not saying that we need to remove regulation from the industry. I like having broadband and I have a feeling that the market correction would be enormous. Forcing allowance of use of your network to providers and placing a limit on what you can charge them for that access is troublesome at best and devastating at worst for the owner of that network. Until the right regulatory environment can be worked out so that prices don't skyrocket but revenues can increase, you'll just see more and more of the same slow development.

Take for instance the 1960'ish world fair. Where we had flying cars and all that crazy stuff. Yes, it gave hope to a generation of hopefulls and dreamers, but it didn't really apply to practical applications at the time.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to have an actual "dream arena" where the wonders of the creators were on the verge of becoming a reality and the visitors were contributors of the dream!!
