i've been turning up the network at my company's new office in the middle of sf currently the building is only serviced by comcast, and the best they can do is 500/35 docsis. oh, but they'll give you two of those -- no bonding or bgp, you get to set up a nat poo poo show to use both currently waiting on a 5gbit dedicated fiber to be installed by comcast, but that takes months to build out

Mr. Nice! posted:comcast charges monthly for modem rentals so i just buy my own periodically. it’s cheaper in the long run. i’ll never forget when comcast changed their pricing “with no price increase!” by bumping the cost of leasing a cable modem down by $10 and bumping service up by $10, just to gently caress over people like me that had bought their own whatever fuckers, i’d already come out ahead by that point anyhow. so glad to not be on comcast anymore, for many reasons including their service just being poo poo

i'm on a wireless isp where a 5ghz dish points at a base station a few km away. their fastest plan is rate limited to 50mbitdn/15mbitup, but it consistently gets exactly that speed so i wonder if i could just pay more money to make it faster. it's probably editable in the transceiver settings but the isp are good people and i don't wanna piss them off would be great to be on fiber but the nearest service for that is like 10km up the road and probably real expensive to extend since govt aren't subsidizing the location. wish they just said "addresses with power/phone also get fiber now" but not yet i guess

if their gear is anything like the mikrotik wisp stuff, the rate can be set on the transceivers, but it's more likely set to the max stable link speed and then the limits are configured on the port or account on the backend

nobody except bargain basement wisps use cpe-side rate limiting (cable via coax and huge rate gpon being an exception) instead use preseem or other edge inserted setups for rate limiting before preseem about 6 years ago we used mikrotik edge routers performing the limiting and we could only do that because we had cpes do nat to the public IP itself, otherwise the CPU usage for edge nat and rate limiting would have been infeasible

ya this story has been going around for a few days. the people still using winrar get very defensive and talk about 7zip fanboys when you ask why they're still using it in 2023 there's a whole ecosystem of poo poo apps that security folks will never touch or audit because they think no one uses but there's a large userbase insisting it's the best thing to use and why are you being weird about it

~Coxy posted:NBNco hosed up a national project by developing some esoteric custom hardware that had multiple data connections (but a 1000/1000 limit on the PHY), two separate POTS connections that nobody ever used, and a giant battery backup that kills its SLA every couple of years (the battery backup also did not power the data connections until recently) sorry i can't leave this post uncorrected. the AU national broadband network wasn't hosed by NBNco, it was hosed by the Coalition (Lib/Nat) government, specifically Tony Abbott. the whole loving point of the NBN was to replace all the dogshit copper POTS cabling with fibre, thus delivering FTTP to every home in the country. if you're not from australia you're probably not aware that basically all of our last-mile POTS copper is ancient, some times >40 years old, also the pits and pillars and bridge taps are the same age. anyway gently caress off the copper was the plan when Labor passed the legislation to establish the NBNco and get things going. unfortunately Labor got turfed from government and the Coalition took over and one of the first things those shiftless fucks did was to gently caress up the NBN, specifically by introducing Multi Technology Mix (MTM). this was basically an excuse to deliver FTTN/HFC instead of FTTP, completely missing the point of the NBN which was to replace the entire copper last-mile. fun fact: former prime minister Tony Abbott announced the change like a couple days after talking to Rupert Murdoch. anyway, fast-forward to today and the Coalition's MTM bullshit ended up costing more and delivering dogshit service and still the garbage ancient copper remains.

in australia NBN was supposed to replace all our last-mile copper with fibre but Rupert Murdoch said "oi gently caress off that means dickheads will have high-speed internet and IPTV and other poo poo so they won't pay for Foxtel (Aussie cable TV) this is hosed!" so Murdoch spoke to Tony Abbott who was PM at the time. and then a few days later in an entirely unrelated incident Tony Abbott announced sweeping changes to the NBN program beginning with the MTM bullshit and ending with subsidies for HFC providers.

winrar had a better interface than 7z (which at the time was a gui application that was barely able to do anything outside of basic archive/extract) and rar also provided much better compression-ratio-to-time than 7z did. that was in 2010, though, anyone still using it today is a fuckin weirdo.

Chris Knight posted:pots still works for a long time when the power goes out. if the ftth provider doesn't include battery backup on the modem, you're hosed specific to AU, the original NBN which was for GPON FTTP everywhere did account for that and specified CPE with battery-backup. service providers bitched and moaned about that requirement amongst other things and yet these days they sell HFC services with CPE that have 5G modems for backup in them so gently caress them entirely.
