Re: Shaw Fibre for Residential Customers?

said by 20424689:

if your getting 18-20 it's not after QOS. the only people who get 18-20 are not QOS'd

the non QOS speeds on telus 50 is

70/18

you will most likely have your speeds drop to 53/12 in the next couple months.......

Telus 50 is actually syncd at around 76/12
source: I actually have it.

FTTH may be different, he may be right. This thread is full of know-it-alls who don't know much-at-all.

FTTH is definitely different.

And just so everyone knows, at my old place I was also on Telus Fibre, for over a year, on Internet 50, and received the same speeds of 18-20mbps upload the entire time. So I don't suspect it will change especially if it's been the same for me the past year.

Source: Actually having and used the service for over a year.

Either way, thanks for the concern, I know we're all just trying to get fast-er upload speeds here

What's needed for highest tier upload if you don't mind me asking?

I do a lot of design/video work that requires my files to be uploaded to cloud storage for others to work with and send back.

Fibre has definitely been a HUGE improvement, I use to be working with 2.5mbps upload where I'd just leave everything to upload overnight when I went to sleep.

LOL I'm just picturing 4k video editing and streaming......gigabit FTTH will become a requirement.

and where are the line sync stats to accompany that?

not my speedtest but FTTH doesn't show line sync.

we just get a ethernet connection from the the Alcatel Lucent modem that usually goes into the actiontec's WAN port if you have optik tv or you can use your own router if not.

Your gateway does though.

Curious, because I don't have experience in this, what are you expecting to see for a line sync rate? 1000 down 1000 up?

I expect true ftth to be symmetrical, anything else is a bunch of garbage!

You mean the Alcatel modem? No idea how to access that. When I plug my laptop into that all I get is a Public IP Address from Telus.

It's a Alcatel-Lucent 7342 if that helps (at least I think it is, looks exactly the same).

Sorry. Didn't comprehend the FTTH at 3:52am. Still thinking he was on bonded twisted pair 50 with the ActionTek gateway. That displays sync stats that Darhole would have liked to see.

Can I ask why?

The networks aren't typically designed to be symmetrical:
G.984 (GPON) = 2.488 gbps down / 1.244 gbps up
G.987 (10G-PON) = 9.95328 Gbit/s downstream / 2.48832 Gbit/s upstream
EPON (IEEE 802.3ah-2004) = Symmetric 1 Gbit/s
10G-EPON (IEEE 802.3av) = 10 Gbit/s down / 1 Gbit/s up

Only one out of four common PON standards is symmetrical, meaning symmetrical plans waste downstream bandwidth.

Interestingly EPON standards allow the running of 802.3ah and 802.3av concurrently, for a 10G down wavelength, a 1G down wavelength, and a shared 1G up wavelength.

Also Interesting: while DOCSIS provisioning of EPON already existed, now some folks are selling DOCSIS provisioning of GPON.
