Cable , DSL , Dial up , T1 ?

[cotharyus]

I geuss I'd fall into the "unknown source" category from work since I don't see "OC-48" up there. Bummer.

I've got 10 meg cable at home. And since I live in the sticks, I get 10meg, because there's only something like 10 people on my node

BTW, an OC3 is a fiber line rated at 150Mbps (mega-BITS per second)

for those of you dreaming of bandwidth, my internet connection at work consists of a "factal" OC48 - or 3 OC-12's, fiber lines rated at 600Mbps. Yes, I do actualy get downloads at work from certain places (real media, microsoft, other large firms with enough money to afford stupid big connections) that exceed 1500KBps - better than one megabyte per second.


We're currently contracting a new site with a twin set of OC-192's....

I used dial-up until last month.

:shock::shock::lol: Holy Crap...I thought Dial Up was Dead!

So according to that... at least 1.7% of the visitors are surfing RCC at work I don't know of many individuals that have a dedicated OC3 pipe at their house... my guess is the other 24.3% of unknowns are also guys surfing at work... slackers!

I don't know what we use here at the office but it's fast, but the only time I even use the net is at work so that's why I'm on here all day...I'm an Engineer so all I do is stare at a computer all day. I don't even have it at the house.

I have DSL at home but T3 at work. DSL is plenty fast enough for me to do stuff.

 

[clod booster]

i did a search and apperently a more definite description of OCwhatever is that is a fiber optic based connection. fiber optic goes wicked fast period, if you get a cluster of OC129 can you say instant?"thumbsup"

 

[Natedog]

Cable... but sometimes I wonder.

Here too...

oc3 is better than t3 I'm pretty sure.

Yes and if you got $$$ it's not just for industries anymore. 8)

OC12 - 622 megabits per second (4 OC3s)
