said by wifi4milez:said by XBL2009:The copper network value is degrading every year is the point. Using DSL tech is only a stop gap measure and won't fix the problem. They have to replace their entire network at some point and it won't be with more copper.
That is 100% correct. When the time comes and they do that however,
THEN you will see higher capacity connections available to far more people. Thats my whole point, the telco's/ISP's need to spend a few billion (collectively) for 100Mbps connections to be the norm. Until then, we can all want them but they arent needed, nor will they be provided on a large scale.
What will happen is they will offer 10mbps with caps and milk it for the next 50 years. The FCC being the telco bitch that they are will let them get away with it.
