Re: Monitoring Tools said by espaeth:said by NickD:instead of capping upgrade the network They did. You can get around the caps by leveraging the benefits of those upgrades and signing up for the 60mbps tier. lol, $140/mo for internet!? That must be a joke. I bet you won't even get 80% of the advertised speeds. |

said by cahiatt: My CBN account is choking down with 300k out of the supposed 2.0 meg of upload that I'm supposed to have.... 2.0 Mbps = 2.0 megaBITS per second, not megabytes. 2.0MB = 2048 bytes; 2.0 Mb = 256 bytes. So you're actually getting MORE than advertised. |

| 2.0 Mbps = (2.0 * (1024 Kbps/Mbps) * (1024 bps/Kbps) / 8) Bps
= 262144 Bps |

Cable never has a guaranteed speed! You need to use a T1 if you want a guaranteed speed. Plus you can bond T1's together. On another note, Cable and DSL is technically a residential product. There is no service level guarantee on either. This means that if your service goes down, it can take up to 2 days to fix the problem! Try to pay your employees to sit on their hands for that long! Now does it take that long? Not very often. But I have a client that encountered that situation. And it was a costly mistake! They switched to a T1. They pay a little more, but it's called piece of mind insurance that his employees won't need a 2 day lunch break!
Plus Charter has a horrible reputation for their business customers! |
