RTB Posted September 16, 2004 CID Share Posted September 16, 2004 Not as lucky as us who pay for 4Mbps and get almost 5Mbps --- but still good 4 Mbps, I hope that where chello is going to set the new cap. Yep, chello is going to increase the advertised speeds again. The most expensive package goes from 4.5 to 8, and they didn't say anything about the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTB Posted September 16, 2004 CID Share Posted September 16, 2004 4.5 to 8! that is crazy!! are you on this package?? 1. Those are the advertised speeds. 2. It's chello. 3. I don't have that package. 4. That package costs 80 euros per month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loganster Posted September 16, 2004 Author CID Share Posted September 16, 2004 I have Charter. I wouldn't mind the download I just wish the upload was better. I mean $42.95/month for 256 kilobits upload? Seems a bit steep to me. They are the only high speed available in my area and I don't want dialup. I guess any broadband is better than dialup.

RTB Posted September 16, 2004 CID Share Posted September 16, 2004 My dad pays 50 euro for a package with 384 advertised upload. We never get higher than 100 Kbps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swimmer Posted September 16, 2004 CID Share Posted September 16, 2004 wow 80 euros for that.. that is still insane.. what that comes down to 8-10 euros per mb... you are paying who knows how much for yours.. that is cheap in one way but also really expensive..

VanBuren Posted September 20, 2004 CID Share Posted September 20, 2004 In Sweden. and all northern europe Even if i was on a 100 Mbps network i wouldnt go faster overseas without changing my MTU. I think i explained that once, we all are limited by that, and since i use same MTU as a 512kbps cable its not very strange that he can use whole bandwith overseas.

Odysseus_____ Posted September 20, 2004 CID Share Posted September 20, 2004 Dern nice, what connection do you have? VanBuren The office complex I am now located in has 3 OC class lines (used to be OC9 but have since upgraded) feeding the server group, a/k/a NTG..(This facillity will soon be a major internet node between Houston and Atlanta...)From that, they feed the offices with three DS3 lines (45 Mbit's each) which they all share..... So whatever's available is pretty much what I get.... it gets much faster after hours when everyone's gone home.... I'm thinking of moving to my office... You're screaming along quite nicely as well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liquidfrozenkewl Posted September 21, 2004 CID Share Posted September 21, 2004 I figure it was a QoS issue, as It was the first time, I did a quick scan of the subnet I am on and there were only 14 live hosts including me and the gateway so that means there is no way in hell the gateway's pipe was overloaded. as Its OC-48 ... anyways I am not really worried about it as it is back to normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
