Hoo-rah for infrastructure upgrades (or the technology to do so). Now it just needs to be implemented and put to practical use. If ISPs begin to upgrade their networks and backbones, then they wouldn't be so congested by heavy users (or as the poster above says, thieves). But all of this makes no sense, no one wants to spend money, they just want to milk it for what it's worth.
Congrats to Siemens and Verizon pushing the limits. |

said by Article :
...100 Gbps transmission on a single wavelength for more than 1,040 kilometers (646 miles) over field fiber. That's the key ... a single wavelength. You can do 100Gbps right now using WDM and 10 x 10 Gbps links. I can't wait until this is scaled up to WDM using 10 x 100Gbps links!

Re: upgrades upgrades upgrades
This is for the backbone, which is already fairly robust and able to meet today's demands. It's also the easiest and lowest cost portion of the network to upgrade. The vast majority of network congestion occurs much closer to the last mile, which unfortunately is the slowest and most expensive portion of the network to upgrade. |

Yea welcome to BBR land of people who think the only thing p2p is used for is piracy lol. Plus their not thieves even if it's stolen content, their copyright infringers. The original disk is still in the hand of the owner. |

Thats Insane, and as for stealing, only thing im stealing is dns, and as crazy as it may seem Im on Verizon's 20/20 plan. and I only consume, at the most 12gb a month. and I rarely use the upload, at the most I use about 1.5mb of it and that's only when I game but it is nice to have such a fat pipe just in case one day I have too use it lol. I wish I could share it amongst some of you turtle surfer's. |

Point is people shouldn't be taking or "copyng" anything without paying for it first. If someone's job doesn't pay enough that they can't afford a $15 DVD then maybe getting a copy of Iron man isn't ther most pressing need. As I alyways say, if you can afford a computer and you can afford internet access you can afford your content. |

| Verizon, Siemens Test 100Gbps
Okay, so when do they extended their speeds for the users to 100mb connections now? I have a friend that has the 20/20 pkg and it's very often that I FTP and max the upload line from the PC. His max up is my max down and it still take 20 mins to transfer 750mb 1,000 miles away.
But I will say Verizon upgrading their backbone to 100Gbps isn't going to help anyone that isn't on Verizon's network. If you have Time Warner or Cox Comm and their backbone only handles lets say 15Gpbs then it's not going to be impacted any. You still have hops to take into consideration and distance along with your ISP speed.
But I agree w/ everyone else .... "Congrats Verizon and Siemens"!! |

The optical side is running over a single wavelength in a DWDM system.. which means you could put more than one 100G link on a fiber.

If your internet company piggy back's of Verizon, or as most tech's call it peering with Verizon, an other words if your internet company pay's Verizon to use there lines then yes it will help. |

This is quite a feat! Very impressive technology. Verizon at least is expanding their last mile network to fiber. Also, they refuse to be a net nanny like AT&T. Additionally, their wireless network has superior coverage and their customer service is more highly rated. So which company do you really think is doing the better job of providing the kind of service that customers want? Verizon apparently gives a damn about their customers to some extent.
AT&T has potential but they want to control and net nanny and play traffic cop for the government and corporations. Also, they are not willing to extend fiber to the premises. Although, I do understand their reasoning behind that and support their u-verse efforts. Try comparing their wireless coverage and reliability to Verizon though. There is no comparison (at least where I live). In rural areas esp Verizon has them beat.
The only criticism i can think of is that Verizon has neglected DSL in some of their territory. |

to Verizon and Siemens for this achievement. Once Verizon starts to get the ball rolling with upgrades on this to their backbone, who'd know how much data they can push using their existing trunk lines. But this will show some good signs for FiOS and even possibly DSL customers for more speed boosts and bandwidth in the future.
Also, if Verizon does own Alter.net, anyone who peers with them would certainly see some benefits. |

In any case, backbone capacity and subscriber edge capacity are two vastly different things. It's like comparing the collective amount of money at your bank and the amount of money in your specific checking account. |

If you're downloading a movie or TV show or song on bitorent and you are not paying for it that is for SALE at other places then it's pretty obvious what you are doing is illegal.
When you walk into wal-mart I'm pretty sure you can tell the diference between the free smaples and the actual product. You'd have to be close to actual mental reatrdation to not know the differnce between legal and illegal content on the net. |
