jcz Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 I mean we've had 10mbit full duplex for 6 years now as something that is widly accesibly to home users and for very cheap $20/month. I mean 2.5/0.8mbit ADSL I got around 1999, which is quite some time ago. And 2 years ago I upgraded to 8/1mbit ADSL. I live just too far away to get a full 13/13 mbit VDSL for $40/month. Many of my friends are sitting with 26/26mbit VDSL links. 100Mbit is now avalible to any1 who had the 10mbit service, and those are about 35% of the broadband population, so its pretty well done with broadband here, even thought the most common ISP has put a cap of 300GB/month on the 100mbit serice (more BW can be bought at 200GB/20$). I think that the cap will disappear soon, as it seems alteast. 1 Gbps is damn much and what comes next is scary to think of!

Matmanamane Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Well, we've got 25 MB ADSL 2+ broadband for only 30 ? in France, that's enough for now...

johan_hammy Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 It seems like anyone who's anything has a POP in Stockholm. So far I've found Level 3, BT, and Global Crossing to be there. Strangely enough, the carrier that I believe has the largest European presense isn't in the Nordics at all (Cogent). Most of the carrier hotels are on the mainland anyway, so that is probably where they go to. The cost of providing the backend on GigE services isn't that much since an ISP can bank on there not being a whole lot of off-net traffic due to limited access on the other side. I'd be surprised if a carrier offering GigE to the home has much more than an aggregate of dual 10GigE connections to the outside world. When you buy IP on these kinds of levels, it becomes very cheap. If you're big enough, you don't have to even pay for your bandwidth, as carriers will want to connect to you for free. Labs2 seems to have connections to BT, Global Crossing, and Telnor (out of Norway).

j.r.l. Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Download speeds on 1Gbps shouldnt exeed 700kb/s - 1mb/s, thats the speed most servers can upload at... Who would need 1gbps? The only way to enjoy it is to use P2P applications!

mac15 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Thats insane, I'm happy with the 10mb I have here in Australia.
