Still, the point stands...$3300/month for a full DS3 circuit that you can run at 100% 24/7/365 (which seemed to be what was asked for) just won't fly for residential use (unless you're a hedge fund manager who lights his cigars with $100 bills).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20222279 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 12:05:10 EDT Re: i want GigE http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20221433 anon : sure, you can get that.. move to Korea

I argue that capacity is king, but at the same time speed is important. There is a balance where both work together to ensure that customer requests are on the line the least amount of time without haveing so many requests queued up that it starts to slow down overall speeds. At that point it's a feedback loop that just builds up.

The other problem is those asking for the speeds are typically the warez downloaders, music/movie stealers, or worse.

Do not tell me you're downloading Linux ISO's.. only about 3 in 100 do that.

I would say that 20mbit is the current sweet spot. At that rate customers can effectively use internet video services like Xbox Live and Apple TV for on demand SD content. At 50mbit you could do 720p HD content. Currently at 20mbit HD 720p content takes a few minutes of downloading before it's far enough along that you could start it. (On Fios only).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20220109 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 22:45:38 EDT Re: i want GigE http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20219898 dvd536 :

When did you last look at pricing
I agree with BuggyBoyOKC See Profile, those are pretty old prices. I got quotes for my area about a year ago just to see what the prices were at. A T1 was about $300/month + install. DS3 (T3) was about $3,000/month + install. Both were about $150-250 for install.

The direct fiber optic was about $6,000/month + $10,000 install.
Speakeasy has some pretty good deals on T1 lines
and the T1 equipment is free after rebate. loop charge is included in their prices

If ISP want to offer 1Gbits/500Mbits then it will cost ISP plenty of FIVETY OF THOUSANDS dollars but I rather to take a 100Mbits/100Mbits that is much plenty of speeds for web browsing, checking email, playing games...

Wait... I have an idea...

We pay about $3300/month for our (full) DS3 circuit, including loop (delivered over Verizon Fiber, down to coax through AdTran equipment, and eventually down to Ethernet handoff via an Anda 2200).

Like i said, when an ISP offers nice speeds such as fios, that doesnt mean taht they are gonna sock you with $100 internet bill.

at one time i was paying 52$ for 3M down on cable.

Now i pay 45$ for 15/2

You can get a 45 Mbps T3 circuit today for about $10,000/month or a 155 Mbps OC3 for about $30,000/month.

Not sure how much a real 1 Gbps connection would cost...but a 2.48 Gbps OC48 runs about $200K/month.

I'm sure they all come with no caps or traffic shaping and great customer service too! (It better be for $200K per month) Can't speak to the bit about government spying though....]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20218835 Mon, 24 Mar 2008 18:53:18 EDT Re: i want GigE http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20218806 Ikyuao : Really?
