| 302700 | 2004-12-14 08:15:00 | > Question is how much will it be? > I reckon we could be looking at $79.95 easily, given that I'm already paying 49.95 a month for 256/128 ubs. 2nd question is, will there be data caps? Didn't Telecom try to restrict monthly data to 10GB per person, only for Orcon to offer unlimited but to shoulder the cost? Unless there's a more generous and realistic data allowance, I can't see this speed going uncapped. I'd blow 10GB easily within a week at 2MB/s. Time will tell I suppose. |

They say the hold ups have been die to changing the rate limiting from packet dropping to packet queuing . But I seem to remember a while back, people were getting up in arms over the changes made at the time to change from packet dropping to queuing . It was mucking up peoples ping and causing lag, especially to the annoyance of online gamers . So the reason (excuse) that implementing that particular change would normally take much longer than from now to March, seems on the face of it to not quiet mesh with what they have already done and are continuing to do . Maybe someone with some knowledge of the workings of these things, like Ninja, could shed a bit of light on the subject . I have a funny feeling it's not going to happen in March anyway . Just going by past experience, plus the preemptive excuse has been hinted at . |
