Nope. I don’t talk about myself like that.
I’ve been repeatedly told by everyone I talk to over there that it’s not ready yet… still… even though it was supposed to be ready by end of Q2 this year.
Calling them today still yielded the same answer for me.
I’m forced to use DDNS and a service to route my emails for me. But email and PBX servers really don’t do well on DDNS type stuff.
I have basically a full rack of equipment. Here’s the network side of it all. My desktop is 2 SPF+ fiber connections back to the core switch. Tons of stuff in my rack is all 10gbps or 40gbps.
Dual opnsense firewalls (top 2 slots, dual 40gbps connecting to core switches), though one is inactive until they let me buy static addresses. I run some business stuff on this. Boatloads of homelabbing and self-learning.
If you want to do full IPS/IDS, then yes you need some horsepower. But just connection with basic rules there’s plenty out there that’s not super expensive. Ubiquiti has their dream machine line which even the “cheap” $400 one can do 10gbps (2gbps with ips, or something like that. I dunno, I don’t keep tabs on them).
I didn’t stop any active connections/downloads happening on the network. I very likely had a gig of other stuff going elsewhere on the network.
Their “smart-nid” is also a router… so that works too, but I don’t trust it and in my setup it’s in transparent mode.
Edit: Formatting sucked
My personal best so far is 7TB in a month 😂
This is just my past month… I have no idea what my record is… but would likely be significantly higher as I slowed down on some stuff recently. I need more harddrive bays/harddrives… Stupid ebay doesn’t have what I want.
Edit: here’s past 90 days as well
Harris did not out perform Biden in ANY category.
The only downside is it’s still IPv6 Rapid Deployment.
And no static IP addresses yet… Even though it was supposed to be rolled out Q2.
And yet here I am in the USA with 8/8 Gbps fiber with no caps. Though I do pay $185 a month. I live in a Red state, and in a metro area, but not near the metro core, in unincorporated county land.
last 30 days stats to prove no caps:
No. I didn’t. Several of what I’m referencing is city owned. Oops don’t you look stupid now.
Edit: Also you’re linking your politics to companies trustworthiness, as if either side is doing anything worth a damn against shitty companies. Speed is going to be a direct comparison of markets that would outline if those companies are shitty or not… No? In either case you’re being stupidly obtuse in linking these 2 topics.
Mentioning “liberal” here is a bit stupid. I’ve seen many conservative areas have unmetered gig fiber.
Hell… where I live now is very conservative and I have 8gb uncapped.
Oh for sure, it’s boatloads and I love it… but I’m in the market for a /28. I want to hand them like $40 extra a month. LET ME PAY YOU QUANTUM/LUMEN/CENTURYLINK/LEVEL3. It’s effectively free money as once it’s setup there’s nothing that changes or goes down. There’s so little maintenance/upkeep cost to it that I just don’t understand why they don’t want to print free money.
