Telstra mentioned by year-end 2023 your location might be affected. They suggest 1Gbps speeds, but whether FTP is a good upgrade depends on your needs.
FTTP offers the top performance available. As a fiber specialist, I install it regularly in remote locations that previously relied solely on satellite internet. It’s definitely worth the wait if you need a reliable connection. Upgrade only now if the speeds are affecting your daily use—like streaming or buffering when many people are online at once.
AT&T in the United States now provides 2 and 5 Gbps connections through its fiber-to-the-home installations. What do you think?
It's helpful to match speeds using the same units. I'm not sure who might be puzzled, so enjoy trying to figure it out!
They included FTTP and it’s amazing—I’m in Australia now. I’m getting 1000 Mbps download and 50 Mbps upload with just 3ms latency, totally worth it.
These values represent the same measurement in different units. Just as "1 inch" equals "25.4 mm," 1 MB per second equals 8 Mb per second. In IT abbreviations, capitalization matters; MB and Mb are distinct. 6 MB/sec converts to 48 Mb/sec, while 7 MB/sec is 56 Mb/sec. Interesting! Fiber definitely makes a big difference.
