Superfast Internet May Be Coming Soon?

Recommended Posts

You think local speed will still be an issue? Of course it will... for now. First the businesses/orginizations that it will prove most useful to have to pay the prices that pay for the research and setup. And the hardware that can use it effectively. After that the prices will come down and it will further spread out in to the private sector. So don't despair, just be patient.

This is not a new concept nor is it a new idea. We can have faster internet but it all has to do with faster switches and routers and not data coords / transfer rates. Currently, most websites load as fast as they possibly can whether you have comcast's 6 mbsp or verizon fios' 25 mbsp since all sites get cached and then the browser has to use the information. It is the browser loading / parsing the information that takes the most time. Overall, the only thing this will help with will be downloading large files like movies and linux distros since you can get one really fast connection instead of 30 bittorrent connections to get fast speeds.
