I have a 3 gig cable modem service
 

...what is the fastest out there?

"you wish"

It is fact...not a wish.

You dont have 3 gig cable modem service. Thats a fact.

3 gigabytes a second? Fact? :1orglaugh

It is a fact that I do.

Do you even know what a gigabyte is?

lol

I think he means he has 3gig transfer allowance a month.

At least that's what I think he means.

:1orglaugh

My apologies...it is 3 megs not gigs. So the question stands...what is the fastest out there?

Did Esteban sell him a 3 gig line additional to his guitar? :winkwink:

He asked "what is the fastest out there"

He clearly referred to the speed of his service

megabytes or megabits, theking?

I just thought he was confused after his double Bloody Mary breakfast.

3Mbit line I'd guess, you can get up to 100Mbit at home depending on where you life in the US but that won't be cheap.

3Mb.

I have 4Mbits cable.


Johndoebob - you cant get 100Mbps on cable modem service, ANYWHERE.

100 Mbit cable modem service? Post proof.

Well...it is apparent that I was confused...my brain told me one thing but my fingers took control of the keyboard...but it is not because of the Bloody Mary as it is my breakfast virtually every day...and I have not even finished it yet.

damn 3 meg is nice. woot

I have a 100 mbps connection, but it's not cable nor DSL. Such speeds aren't possible with cable.

I reckon that

What is it? and who is your provider?

Where did I mention cable modem? :eek7

Same as above, where did I mention cable modem? :eek7

You can get 10Mbit at home without a problem if you life in a bigger city like Las Vegas.For 100Mbit you mostly got to be near a datacenter or some knot point.No cable but DSL or fibre and as I said before it isn't cheap.

Well, this thread is dominated by the discussion of cable modem speeds, so if you were referring to some other technology then you should have been more specific, otherwise people are going to assume you're talking about cable modems.

Well it should be obvious.There is no T1 (10Mbit) or higher provider that offers that speed on cable, impossible because cable lines are shared.

It's LAN, by a european carrier for universities

LAN = local area network :1orglaugh

Most 100Mbit lines are glass fibre.

That's why we questioned it when we thought you were talking about cable modems.

I really don't care what the speed is, its my neighbors network and its free.

LOL

:thumbsup

pretty good:thumbsup

Nope..

T1 = 1.5Mbits


There is a 10Mbits cable modem provider named OptimumOnline (OOL) in the North East.

I have 7mb per second as of 3 weeks ago used to be 5 then got a free upgrade check out RCN.com to see if it's available in your area...

Well in Korea in Japan they have VDSL

Metalink to Show Deployment Ready 100 Mbps VDSLPlus(TM) at Networld + Interop 2004 Tokyo, Japan

The demonstration will be powered by Metalink's ultra-fast VDSLPlus chipsets, which deliver 100 Mbps downstream and 50 Mbps upstream, the fastest VDSL speeds available.

Qwest offers VDSL but not sure if they will allow you the max speeds

Yeah right 1.5Mbit mixed it up.

That 10Mbit service shouldn't be too reliable full 10Mbit over cable because cable lines slow down on high traffic times from what I've heard, but no clue I've never used cable.Is that 10Mbit up to or just down?

2Mbit up/down DSL line here.

OOL is actually a fantastic provider, with speeds and routing!
