Guest aerodude Posted May 21, 2005 CID Share Posted May 21, 2005 Just in theory........ If, let's say you had a question and you googled it and your connection was faster than the speed of light, then in theory you would get the answer before you thought of the question, Right ?....... So it would almost be like playing Jeopardy........LOL! um no.. cause cable speed is travels at speed of light...(fiber optics) it sends laser LIGHT through glass fiber... which is traveling speed of light.. if we figure out hoow to make it faster we can b oost our connection by thousands...and i know im only 15... dont believe me...w/e cause i know it's true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still pretty darn fast. Although, my cable connection goes to fiber at the pole, but I will never get fios speed....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dn0 Posted May 21, 2005 CID Share Posted May 21, 2005 The signal travels at approximately 85-88% the speed of light in standard coaxial cable. This is called the Velocity of Propagation; which is basically the speed of the signal relative to the speed of light. --slapping myself-- OK - out of scientific mode- fikester; That $155 million is mine, all mine!!!!!!

deerkill10 Posted May 21, 2005 CID Share Posted May 21, 2005 hey guys the military has been using satellite communication for years and there up and down speeds are classified so we can only guess what they acheive......but you could probably cook a hotdog in record time if you were within 20 feet of their transmitters..So the technology is out there but it is expensive and regulated ....
