nibbles of bits and bytes to make words go round and round
Just doing a little work on a different network than I'm used, copper
(A)DLS voice over inet, with a LAN or so stated for something like 10M / 1M u/dl ratios. It's on the brochure, for sure. So I start asking questions, as usual, and got myself routed over to a speed test for verification. And lo, yep & behold, results come back, via _inhouse_ acceptability, @ 1M d/l & point-5 u/l. Wow, guess I'd just never the chance before to read it that way. Plain and same old copper line carrier serving me since a 56K dialup and into DSL. Idea didn't occur, apples and oranges could taste exactly, precisely the same until I ran some d/l-s off test sites with my same ol, same-same apps and saw exactly, precisely the same speeds the LAN is doing, as I'd seen, for sure, from a DSL configured for simultaneous voice talk- tru on a VOIP provider. Sorts of things in rhymes between kilo bytes and plain ol' standalone bytes. Maybe. Sounded pretty, anyway, just wasn't x10 or even x100 faster, like a rocket ship shooting straight through my head at the speed of light, at least. . . .Damn, Sam, & sheesh. |
