[VDSL] Jim - Well what can I say to refute such statements? ( he even gave a URL to the source) I'm not trying to be the champion of single-carrier VDSL. I'm just trying to point out that there are proponents on each side. I find it interesting that people who backed multi-carrier ADSL are now backing single-carrier VDSL and wanted to bring up the issue. Maybe they thought DMT VDSL was not feasible, but Amati has now solved these problems by going half-duplex (ping-ponging)? I have no idea. I was hoping that someone with more knowledge might comment. My prediction is that T1E1 will NOT be able to set a VDSL standard any time soon. I believe that they can only act with the consent of a clear majority, and I don't think that they will be able to achieve this. Instead the market will be allowed to decide which form of VDSL will "win", and most likely there will be multiple de facto standards. By the way, who administered the tests that gave rise to your "CAP Leaks!" quip? Was it an independent group, or a group of DMT backers? I'm guessing that this "demonstration" was orchestrated by the DMT camp just as surely as other "demonstrations" will be orchestrated by the CAP camp. There is a lot of money to be made here, so people are willing to tailor the "truth" to further their own agendas. Rob P.S. I think I started reading SI at the tail end of the CAP vs. DMT debates, when things had degenerated into a bunch of name calling and finger pointing. I certainly don't want to start this again for VDSL, but any technical debate would be interesting.
