Jakeypiez Posted June 29, 2020 CID Share Posted June 29, 2020 Hi there, I'm a Telecoms Engineer for Wightfibre, based on the Isle of Wight. We have been rolling out our own fibre optic network for the past two years. I'm currently testing 10G to my home, which was installed with fibre not long ago. This is the fastest test I could do until it told me it was fake! (Rate limiting) I can provide further proof if you require Pgoodwin1 and CA3LE 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShakTib Posted November 27, 2020 CID Share Posted November 27, 2020 I moved from my Gigabit home to another location that the same provider isn't here. Now my "gigabit" runs up to 200mbps... Looking at this speed makes me speed depressed LOL @Jakeypiez, is there a way for an average joe to connect to the interwebs directly without going through ISP? I am curious since you are hands on in that field... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was happy with my tests till I saw these. T-mobile 5g has a ways to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
