No kidding. I am on a gig pipe to NLR/Internet2 and 512 to the commodity 'net with a fully symmetric 10 meg backup pipe with a SLA. Not exactly a consumer level connection. Thought I would test this out and I am currently getting ~10KB/sec. I know exactly what the topology between me and the backbone looks like, and there are no BT filters or floods of RST packets inbound to me. It just ain't a fast torrent. But, everyone prefers the conspiracies. Oh... and before someone asks me about utilization on my border router, it is 1-10% usage on average. Currently .16% tx and .05% rx. so I know there is no bottleneck. Upstream on the commodity backbone is currently ~13% utilization. That's not to say I don't disagree with what some ISPs *are* doing, but in this case, it is not the conspiracy claimed. _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://mail.brlug.net/mailman/listinfo/general_brlug.net
