Re: System capacity problems in Port Angeles/Sequim area So... exactly how much "PUD Fiber" do you guys expect Wave to use in Kitsap county (which is served by Puget Sound Energy, and has no PUD)? Granted there is PUD in Mason County & Clallam County. But Wave's network is already an HFC network, making very extensive use of fiber.
I can tell you from a very reliable source that Wave's capacity issues in Port Angeles are directly related to an unexpected growth in commercial accounts. If it weren't for the recent storms, the upgrade would have been completed before the first of the year. |

I know that Wave is now serving the City of Bremerton with their downtown wireless setup. Are you saying this has contributed to the capacity issues? I would probably assume this is why speed fluctuates quite a bit in the evening hours. I still haven't seen it get down to a crawl and has still been acceptable. |
