Gateway speed
This is a speed that my current 4G provider is giving no selling me
That same provider still sells XDSL as a viable internet service with obsolete equipment that you cannot buy anywhere anymore
they are nuts
They also have 5G, however I haven't gotten myself a 5G SIM card based router yet

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

As you can see the speed of my LTE plus provider is now at about half of what it should be.
A non-technical person would complain. I know that the data provider is using something that we call overboeking {NL}
That literally means that they allow way too many devices to be pooled together which drops down the speed dramatically (a bit more than 50%).If however you take into account that that same provider gives you on UTP cable a bandwidth that's not even enough to fill a 1.2 TB hard drive {10 MBit} with data in 28 days you know that this speed is still much much better than what they would sell you on obsolete xDSL
The power company had done everything that the data Company needed to run passive Fiber cable in the street. The data Company uses Fiber Access Terminals, to connect the houses with the main fiber optic cable that they run in the air. From the smaller cable that comes to your house you get a small breakdown interface that translates, converts the light based data into copper for which they also sell you meager speeds; things like 48 megabits for which they want more than 100% of the money that you pay them for the obsolete xDSL
The power company replaced all the electrical masts required, because they needed certain levels of quality that the old masts did not provide. The Power Company also did the work in less and 50% of the time where retaining safety for everyone and everything

I just did a speed test from my current bandwidth provider. As I've said before I use 4G plus Internet because it's magnitudes faster than the 10MBit/s which the xDSL provider gives with which are the most I can get 3.2 TBytes per month
1TB=1024GB
I will never be able to fill a proper hard drive in one month at such speeds. A proper hard drive is 16 TB at minimum
The speeds are oké for this Point in Time

The speeds are oké for this Point in Time. The upload speed sucks major, normally that's about 30 megabits a second

Since I am now not stuck with one ISP giving mediocre internet speeds on obsolete xDSL systems the following has been measured
This is a speed that I get over 4G Networks. What immediately jumps into your eyes is that the speed is almost symmetrical. When providers can give speeds like this and give 4G + speeds at 40 MBit/s you realize how mediocre 10 MBit/s is with just five megabits / seconds up running on End of Life obsolete xDSL routers

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

This time the ISP decided to drop the amount of bandwidth that it gives to the clients, the paying clients without any nice warning

My ISP gave me an interesting scare a couple of minutes ago. As you know if you do not want to pay them for a permanent IPv4 address, which I consider obsolete networking, they remotely reboot your gateway device and assign it a random IP out of one of their IPv4 pools.
This time it didn't take the usual long 30 to 90 Seconds to reboot the device and transfer credentials to obtain the new IP.
The Gateway got in an infinite loop somewhere and I had to Power it off, then had to wait 90 seconds to power cycle it before it took 180 seconds for the device to finally get the new IP.Someone screwed up the login sequences for the xDSL devices of which the hashtag is in the toot and now we as the paying customer again have to pay for it in wasted time.
Luckily this power cycling off xDSL devices occurs only once in 6 weeks and usually I do not use the internet at that point in time.
In case you are wondering my Gateway uses obsolete technology, is forcibly assigned by the ISP and it's also cursed with a extremely low transfer speed.
I just included a speedtest after first draft of this toot
As you can see the speeds here are so low the connection is virtually unusable for anything where you have to move a big bites of data. They still manage to extort more than USD 30 a month for this connection

Does anyone else remember the time when those who could afford a #webcam and had #xDSL instead of the others who still had 56k dialup, had websites with a tiny image from their webcam that updated every minute or more?
One of those sites was #dansaa.com, I had no idea who this Chelsea was but watching her and her friends partying out in front of the camera was something so new and amazing I couldn't stop watching the "stream".

@harrysintonen I had great experience with #elisa, #xDSL and #IPv6. Upon request i got my own /64, and when I asked (business) support in the phone if I could get another /64 routed to me [clicking sound in the background] I got it right away. Just 15 minutes earlier the sales department said it can't be done 😁
