  1. I've cut myself from the landline where my ISP only offers xDSL over copper

    VDSL2 peaks at just 10 MBits/s here, giving you barely the ability to fill 1.5 TB of HDD Space, assuming 50% of available, actual available, bandwidth

    They are charging a ridiculous amount of money for that obsolete technology also.

    Wat peeved me is that the Power Company replaced the utility poles especially for the ISP which then disregarded the work and refused to pull the fiber optic cables with the Fiber Access Terminals in the street

    On the 4G networks I can reach 100 megabits

  2. I've stopped working with obsolete xDSL network devices. I have an ISP Fiber who installed Fiber to the CURB and Fiber to the Home simultaneously just to make money. They installed the obsolete fiber to the curb systems to milk people into making them think that xDSL is a way for the future.

    Meanwhile on quite stable 4G Networks they give the speeds that you see in the screenshot. I can reach more than 40 MBit per second! I would rather be ad hoc on the internet, then have a slow obsolete 10 MBit connection over two copper wires.

    I am finally enjoying the internet again when it comes down to speed
