Re: I want to live in Hong Kong

don't worry, we'll probably (maybe) have those speeds in 10 or 15 years.

100 Mbps service is on its way here to Toledo much sooner than many folks are aware of...

Too bad it will cost an arm and a leg and wideband might not play well with voip.

@sbcglobal.net

hah in toledo you get 7mbit for 50ish+ via buckeye and 1.5mbit for 20ish+ from at&t because buckeyes 1.5mbit line is a joke

if it comes to toledo it would be 150+per/month the way buckeye charges for stuff and they would severely cap the upload like cable is now

Canada will likely take more than a century to hit the century mark speed-wise.

Now you're just being too kind (or apologetical) to the nature of these ISP companies.

It would take a second mortgage a month to get that kind of speed anywhere in the states.

We're lucky if 10Mbps is even in the area, and often it much more than $48.50/mo (6Mbps in my area is $49/mo). Plus it's pretty much impossible to get an upstream higher than 786Kbps in North America.

I'd murder my best friend to get 100Mbps symmetrical, that's if he doesn't get me first for it.

100mps symettrical to what? The ISP? Talking about speeds like this are stupid, because no one on this has 100mbps to the Internet. So it goes 100mbps up to the ISP, who then squeaks out maybe 30Mbps to the Internet. Big whoopie. The only people this will help are the local DVD pirates in hong kong.

Some people have friends on the same ISP.

Re: I want to live in Hong Kong

Symetrical as in 100Mbps up, 100Mbps down. Most comsumer broadband has a far greater down than up speed

Although speeds like this will probabily only help for multiple conncurrent downloads.
