Re: Level3 NOC Contact
AFAIK theres no longer any way to get their attention unless you're a customer AND have signed up for their online portal system at https://my.level3.com/ - and I wouldn't expect anything stellar then either. You'll likely have to do your own troubleshooting through them as my recent experiences have shown little to no clue or assistance from them. They were happy to do as asked but weren't able, or willing, or whatever to do anything on their own. Make certain you get the problem category right too or you'll be stuck in the wrong team without any of them telling you that. On Friday, June 26, 2015, Nathanael C.

I seen a few years back a FTTH development get completed using GPON - everything in the area got Full Gig Internet. Speedtest while I was onsite showed about 900Mb/s download so pretty darn close (before they fully deployed). The interesting part was that the development consisted of 4400 active users the last time I heard but the bandwidth to upstream provider was still only a single GigE and was not hitting serious saturation levels most of the time. I have worked on server room networking, and found that it takes quite a bit of tweaking of the interfaces and the TCP stack to get things up to 80 percent usage of a gigabit link. Both ends. So your side can go like the wind, but your data source may not be able to fill the pipe. So I agree that, for most people, this will be pure marketing hype. As for the 4400 users, that's the classical oversubscription model.

How does one fully utilize a gigabit link for home use? we once asked how a home user would use 56kb, how anyone needed more than 640k in a pee cee, how we would need more than 32 bits in an address. the only thing not rising is water levels. except the ocean, that is. randy
Re: World's Fastest Internet in Canadaland
We recently had to pull some year over year statistics on consumption for a regulatory filing. In 2009, our average customer used 11G of data. This year it is 85G. In 5 years it could be 400G or more. What's worse is, OTT video means that consumption is more than likely going to be at peak hours, driving capacity issues. The average multi device household streaming HD video and gaming, and whatever else comes along will drive usage. I honestly don't care what people do with their Internet connection. I just know that I need to find ways to deliver more, because they're going to want it - even if they don't need it.

Personally I think it's pure marketing ... something I think we all know... I seen a few years back a FTTH development get completed using GPON - everything in the area got Full Gig Internet. Speedtest while I was onsite showed about 900Mb/s download so pretty darn close (before they fully deployed). The interesting part was that the development consisted of 4400 active users the last time I heard but the bandwidth to upstream provider was still only a single GigE and was not hitting serious saturation levels most of the time.

After you increase the download speed above a certain threshold, it's my experience that total data per month doesn't increase more than marginally with speed increase. As soon as access speed is high enough so youtube, netflix etc automatically goes to the highest resolution immediately, data transfered per month is the same even though the access speed goes up.

Re: World's Fastest Internet™ in Canadaland
The issue here is economics. 1G hardware is cheap, as in sub-$100 for a 1G CPE with SMF in one side and RJ45 out the other. Even if you decide to limit yourself at 100m or similar, if you build it at the optics side, it is more expensive than building at 1G. Because of this, 1G is the most sensible speed/solution. I believe that many people won’t get a real quantity of usage from their links because they will be on 2.4ghz wifi regardless. If you have your home wired, you might get something faster but the largest users these days tend to be adaptive streaming video which uses around 16Mb/s for a 4K stream from Netflix, or software updates from Apple. Speaking of which, since 8.4 is launching next week and tends to be one of the larger internet events these days (more so than victoria secret turned out to be by ratio) I’m awaiting a surge of software updates for all the iDevices around the world. - Jared On Jun 26, 2015, at 2:39 PM, Rafael Possamai raf...@gav.ufsc.br wrote: How does one fully utilize a gigabit link for home use?

Re: Re: World's Fastest Internet™ in Canadaland
Good points. But just like I won't take more than one shower at a time, I probably won't watch more than one Netflix stream session at a time (assuming that for myself only). Downloading a large ISO image in seconds is definitely a plus, although at the office I never reach a steady 120MB/s from some Linux mirror out there. I've recently created a Debian mirror and the 1500GB or so of data came at an average speed of 270mbps using a 1gbps datacenter link. I think it will still be a while until we can saturate a 1gbps link inside the average home. While there are people working hard to deliver 1gbps FTTH, there are others working equally as hard in developing video compression algorithms to utilize less bandwidth on the content provider side. Not arguing against it, I'm just throwing gas at the fire to see what different perspectives come out.

Overkill is good provided it doesn't cost too much more. You want the connection speed to not be a limitation on what you are trying to do. 1G does that at a good price point these days. At some point in the future 1G will seem slow and there will be a new speed that stops the link speed being the limitation. You don't think about the size of power lines coming into a house as they are overkill for just about anything you will do in the house. You don't think about the size of water pipes coming into a house as they are overkill for just about anything you will do in the house. Very occasionally you will want to connect directly to the mains (filling a pool) but otherwise the pipe is more that sufficient. The worry should be over the gigabytes transfered, the kilowatthours and the kilolitres consumed which are the actual resources being delivered. Unfortunately ISP's have made it about link speed rather than what it really is about because link speed was the limiting factor.

Similar to the concept of price elasticity in economics, going from 50mbps to 1gbps doesn't necessarily increase your average transfer rate, at least I don't think it would for me. Anyone care to comment? Just really curious, as to me it's more of a marketing push than anything else, even though gigabit to the home sounds really cool. Overkill is good provided it doesn't cost too much more. You want the connection speed to not be a limitation on what you are trying to do. 1G does that at a good price point these days. At some point in the future 1G will seem slow and there will be a new speed that stops the link speed being the limitation. You don't think about the size of power lines coming into a house as they are overkill for just about anything you will do in the house. You don't think about the size of water pipes coming into a house as they are overkill for just about anything you will do in the house. Very occasionally you will want to connect directly to the mains (filling a pool) but otherwise the pipe is more that sufficient. The worry should be over the gigabytes transfered, the kilowatthours and the kilolitres consumed which are the actual resources being delivered. Unfortunately ISP's have made it about link speed rather than what it really is about because link speed was the limiting factor.

Of course, with 2015 families not glued to their Tv's as much as previous generations did, that is less demand for classic Tv.

Re: World's Fastest Internet™ in Canadaland
It’s not just about the transfer rate, though. As has been noted, response times at peak congestion are definitely faster if you have more bandwidth. So if you’ve got 3 kids all wanting to stream different HD5k content, 50Mbits is going to get interesting. 100Mbps will probably handle it with enough of a jitter buffer. 10G you can probably play instant on and let the jitter buffer build while playing the first few seconds. There are a number of other tactics that can improve user experience with more bandwidth than is needed for the long-term average. Average transfer rate is a silly way to measure anticipated user experience, as has been pointed out by others.

Re: World's Fastest Internet™ in Canadaland
10Gbps inside the home at an economical price for the phys means IP Multicast can finally be a viable alternative (replacement for) HDMI. No more will you connect one Blu-Ray player to One Amp to One TV. You’ll just connect them all to ethernet. Amps and TVs will have UIs which allow you to subscribe to streams provided by Blu-Rays and other media sources. Want to watch something on two TVs while listening to the audio through a particular amp in the house, no problem. Set up the stream on the provider device and subscribe on the TVs and the Amp. When it’s all set, press play and enjoy. Want to pause it and move to a third TV and change amps? No problem. Pause, reconfigure the subscriptions, and resume. Of course this will require the RIAA and their friends to either come up with new ways to be obnoxious to consumers or to perform an extraction of their crania from their collective rectums about DRM in order to be viable, but I’m sure one or more of those things will happen eventually.

Joe [1] http://b4rn.org.uk And defend the current regulatory regime well they do. I live literally minutes outside of the Ottawa urban area and I have as choices for network connectivity either LoS wireless or satellite. I can, however, stand at the end of my driveway and look in EITHER direction to see houses that can get cable service, yet none of the incumbents are willing to service my little stretch of road (affecting me and ~5 neighbours). I'm told by the neighbours (I just moved here) that they've been bugging the incumbents for YEARS and getting no traction at all. I'm thinking of pricing out a fiber run and running a little local co-op network access provider for me and the neighbours, but I suspect that install costs might nix that idea. (For extra fun, I was told by one of the incumbents that my address was serviceable with up to 150Mbps cable before I purchased the property.
