lduncan Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Hey Pies, the 10 meg link, is that FTTC ethernet? Is it expensive? Brianemone, are they putting in adsl2 or adsl2+ dslam's, or maybe even vdsl? Layton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pies Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Havn't seen any plans for Telecom to do any mass rollouts of anything in the next 12 months. They are forever upgrading the VCRSs and DSLAMs for all sorts of tasks but I wouldn't hold out for much more than what you already have for quite some time. Prices were looking to drop, but with our friend the bit torrent slowing distroying the internet its unlikley to happen until bandwith issues are resolved. The only thing stopping Telecom/TCL providing more bandwith to the residential market is simply bandwith issues, getting fat pipes is available to most of us now (for mega dollars on xDSL). So until there is a major upgrade in available bandwith or the RIAA stops tools like Bit Torrent things are unlikley to change for us.

Brianemone Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 cant remember if it was adsl2 or vdsl cause thayve been talking about both, they are testing voice over it at the moment and will decide a few things from that. the proposed start for the roll out was end of 2005 but i havent heard anything since a few months ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lduncan Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 One of my lecturers at uni worked for bell labs in the mid 90's, and was one of the engineers who worked on creating the VDSL scheme. Very smart guy. Layton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pies Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 We are doing architechture for Voice over ADSL now, no need for any upgrades other the soft upgrades for the BINC and DSLAM for QOS. No VoIP product in the market for xDSL until mid 06. Who is doing testing of the vdsl/adsl2? Pie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
