 | Guess you don't understand....thats not speed they are uploading at, it is continus bandwidth usage. Further more, at that rate this customer will use over 3GB in 24hours. Multiply that bandwidth "usage" by hundreds of users and it is additive. |
 patcat88 join:2002-04-05 Jamaica, NY kudos:1 1 edit | Are you running 1000 cable modems of 1 T1 that your so desperate for bandwidth, or is that T1 pay per byte/95th percentile but you sell unlimited to your customers? Time to give up your dream of another yacht and give the dog a bone. 35kbps is nothing unless your running off a T1.
You need 100mbit ethernet or a T3, worst case 10mbit, for 1000 users, if thats not enough, get a sandvine and make bittorent packets a lower QOS than port 80 only during period of backhaul line saturation, and not just outright block BT.
If you are running it off a T1, what happened to microwave link/free space optics? Cough up the $ and run fiber. Your names says FTTH. Im sure you probably already have fiber, since how else are you going to get TV programing from local stations (OTA with rabbit ears? lol), and possibly national cable networks (you could use satellite easily for those though). "Ballwin, MO", looks like a suburb of St Louis, dont tell me you can't get fiber or a microwave link.
Or are you a ghetto cable company that is still 1 way with dialup return or something that 35kbps is traumatic? |
