you are some damn lucky!!  i have pushed 1 MB before but that was at 2 in the morning when no one else was here...  

that is really sweet.. you are running fiber correct?

Don't you have a friend that has the 100/100 package?  I wonder what speeds he gets to optonline

Yea i will ask him to make the test, my guess is that he will run over 50 Mbps cos this route is rock solid and both AOL and OOL servers probl got a major backbone

I think US will have fiber to thier homes soon aswell, but the government has to pay atleast 50% of the fiber digging, atleast thats what they did here.

Here we got city fibergrids, owned my one company, you pay a rent to use the fibernet. Then you have to contact a ISP that the netowner has a contract with, here in Luleå we have 3 diffrent isp to choose from, but hey this is a small town 75 000 ppl. Once the fibergrid is installed, competition will be better.

My house is not connetcted to that grid, i live in a rent department and our house owner has hes own fiberoptic grid, we cant choose any other ISP on this net, atleast not yet.....

I also got IP telephone by fibernet, alot cheeper then regular analog net. I call free to any one on same net aswell.

I guess there a some benefits to haveing a socialist economy, lol.  The US government would probably never invest the money required for that kind of a project.
