Internet connection : fiber optic

[LuckyCombatPotato]

Anyone got this ?

Supposed to be 100 Mb/download and 10Mb/upload.
Orange fekers keep calling about it.

This for 10€ extra...
Does it really worth it as i just play online games ?

i think for the gamingconnection it isnt important to have a hugh connection. it doesnt matter if u can upload 1mb or 10mbit cause u only need 7kb in germany u can disable a datacheck at the internet distributor. so u have a faster ping but it can happen that u lost more packages.

and i dont think that you can download with 100mbit at the moment. the most server dont give you a so high bandwidht.

how much cost your 8mbit connection? and whats your actuall upload speed.

Nice. The thing is, if i play during the day (when not much people on internet / games) it's fine. But when it's rush time (8-9-10-11 pm) it sometimes takes about a whole clip of bullets in the head of somebody to kill him.

I checked yesterday evening and my download speed was about 5meg...

the most server dont give you a so high bandwidht.

how much cost your 8mbit connection? and whats your actuall upload speed.

I pay 34€ for an orange box connection : 8mb internet connection, telephone (i can phone for free anywhere in the world on a landline) and hd television.
It would be about 44€ with the fiber optic connection...

my actual connection is 7;2meg download and 800kb upload (tested it during the day tho).

only 34 € and u can call all over the world? crazy! Really nice
i have to pay 25€ for a 25mbit down 1mbit up. digital tv cabel(30-40channels) and telphone-flat for national calls without mobile phone

32mbit cost 45€ and the 122mbit cost 80 €

44 euro is a very good price for this performance but it isnt important u need a fastpath. the ISP have to disable the interleaving your ping can be better round about 15-25ms but i dont know if your provider can do it

I have 100/100 and i think it's worth it, not that i pay anymore for it. I only use it everyother week though, but i love to be able to get a movie or something in a couple of minutes.

So yes, its worth it, and you should get it.

Did ya get a better ping in css ?

[Sayril]

Ye i get a better ping, it's not much but good enough. When im at my fathers place I have about 90-100 ping, and at my mothers where i have the 100/100 i get between 60 and 70 so it helps. But it really shows when your downloading stuff, at my fathers i get a downloading speed at about 200-300 kb/s and at my mothers i get about 5000-6000 kb/s and we'r 7 computers on that network that almoste runs 24/7 (one of those computers is downloading 24/7).

Not much difference for me then as i don't download much stuff...i usualy have 50-60 ms ping. Won't change much i guess.

cheers for the info !
