[ilugd] Broadband Connection

2007-06-29 Thread Ayush Gupta
Hi!

I just wanted to ask everyone that what is the actual download speed
they get on their broadband connections?

I use Airtel broadband in DLF City, Gurgaon. I have a 128kbps
[EMAIL PROTECTED] 500 p.m.

However, the actual download speed I get is only about 10-12
kilobytes/sec as per Azureus (BitTorrent) and about 20 kilobytes/sec
at night, when the connection switches to 256 kbps automatically. I
dont think my download speed would be dependent on the source speed as
I have plenty of seeds for the torrents most of the times.

Are these speeds similar to what you all are getting with your connections??

Thanks and Regards

Ayush Gupta

I actualy get 30-32 kB/s on a 256kbps BSNL Dataone
connection in Sukhrali village Gurgaon, which is fair.
Sometimes there are short bursts to 40-56 kB/s too.

 I use Airtel broadband in DLF City, Gurgaon. I have
 a 128kbps
 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 500 p.m.
 about 10-12
 kilobytes/sec 

12 kB/s = 96kbps and 20 kB/s = 160 kbps while you
should get 128 kbps and 256 kbps respectively.

Use iptraf to measure your instantaneous bandwidth
correctly.

Hi,
AFAIK the upload/download speeds offered/advertised by the ISPs is only 
guaranteed up to their POP (Unless you are on an IPLC).
Sites like speedtest.dslreports.com should show you the real speeds measured to 
their servers in the US.
easiest way to check is to setup iperf between your PC/laptop and your friend's 
machine (could be in same/diff city/country). You might be surprised what your 
results show up!!

regards,
Shiv

 how to configure?

Hi,
Since we dont have much to go by wrt your setup (router etc), the easiest way 
to accomplish this is by setting up a site-to-site VPN.
If you like linux/FOSS OpenVPN is the best way to do that. Udderwise, fo for an 
IPSec based soln. 
hint: pfSense (www.pfsense.com) is a nice place to start at.

Hi,
You mean if you switched off the Access point, the noise goes off in the phone? 
I have seen this happening on a 2.4Ghz cordless telephone from Beetel. Its 
called interference and can be resolved by changing to another channel and/or 
moving the phone/AP away from each other.
If its happening inspite of the Wifi being off, then you probably have not used 
a DSL splitter on the telephone wire. This box sits between the telephone and 
the router.

How about a quick and gross hack here? If you are sure that ctrl-A (^A) will 
never figure in the input ever. Then replace all instances of the 
separator with this before splitting and restore after splitting.

e.g. If we take this replace character as %.

$ cat test.txt
Lastname,Firstname,Address, Apt/Suite #123,City,State,dasd,sdas,Zipcode

$ cat test.txt| perl -ne 's/(.*?),(.*?)/$1%$2/g; split /,/; foreach(@_){ 
s/%/,/g; print $_\n;};'
Lastname
Firstname
Address, Apt/Suite #123
City
State
dasd,sdas
Zipcode

Looks like DU doesn't have Ubuntu, but some random

Re: [ilugd] 5,000 ubuntu desktops at delhi university

2007-06-29 Thread Debarshi 'Rishi' Ray
 [OT]
 Anyways, FYI, VJTI (http://vjti.ac.in/) in Mumbai does
 have its internet browsing centre dual booting with
 Ubuntu 7.04. (Centre for NRCFOSS-Mumbai node too) The
 server setup is in process to support Windows and
 *buntu client machines. :)
 [/OT]

For your information, NIT Hamirpur's computer centre runs _only_ on
Ubuntu 6.06. It is maintained by the local GLUG
(http://glug-nith.org/).

Not only that there are atleast half a dozen faculty members who use
GNU/Linux,. Among them 2 use it as the only OS on their home desktop
and laptops, and sometimes hang out on IRC (#glug-nith on Freenode)
too.

There is no NRC-FOSS or other external agency's involvement yet.

Regards,
Debarshi

 ophs, no its not you, Its me who cannot make the thing clear what
 actually I want to say.
 Anyway, let me out of this discussion. Sorry for what I said.

no need to be sorry - you made several vaild points and started an  
interesting thread. Other people have other points of view. So dont  
take it as personal criticism

Re: [ilugd] Google Desktop Finally Out for Linux

2007-06-29 Thread das
These are the times when State intervenes every moment into every bit of
personal data: more as a preemptive bid. Are all these bits and pieces,
Google Earth, Wikimapia, and now this Google Desktop just ploys in that
maneuver? Just curious what other people on LUG List are thinking?
