quick_thinking, Thanks for the post. I hope you don't mind, but I've copied and posted about it at: Message 20139947 Where I stated: Some fttx implementations here in the states do support up to a Gigabit per second, but most of those, if not all, have been governed back to 10 and 100 Mb/s, with the 100Mb/s level priced at a premium rate for commercial / so-ho use. World Wide Packets' platforms, in particular, come to mind. Some installations are actually of the fiber-to-the-premises genre of the technology, installed prior to the FTTP moniker being coined. In those situations a fiber link is used to feed an Ethernet switch at the 1 Gb/s rate on its uplink port, with copper extensions feeding end points throughout a structure at 100 Mb/s. But nothing that I've seen approaches the $40/mo price point mentioned in the article for 100 Mb/s service. If anyone is aware of such offerings, please advise. I have to view that sum of $40/mo, however, with a little bit of caution, due to the vagaries associated with exchange rate conversions and charges not included in the base pricing.
