@aki, If ISPs could purchase 155Mbps because the clients need upto 155Mbps(not even factoring in the fact that Overhead bytes offer a payload roughly 140 Mbits/sec as @john says which I agree),the ISPs willnot be in business.Some ISPs TRULY offer dedicated bandwidth but they also capitalise on the fact that not all clients use up all their capacity at the same time,so they can comfortably balance their traffic + other traffic being local through IXP,makes them in business. If @simon has a good managed router,he can also check the traffic on the outside interfac of his router to be on the safe side Please I feel MTU willnot be relevant in this case On Tue, Sep 29, 2009 at 5:50 PM, aki <aki275@googlemail.com> wrote:
@Tano-pings, I think we have hijacked Simon's thread and others may complain of being spammy. Letting it be for now. I can only imagine if we were SPs, his problems were resolved. :-)
