Hi, I have a business that is currently connected via a DSL connection with Maxnet, the connection stats are:
Statistics | Downstream | Upstream |
Line Rate | 5594 Kbps | 852 Kbps |
Attainable Line Rate | 5284 Kbps | 852 Kbps |
Noise Margin | 11.8 dB | 12.4 dB |
Line Attenuation | 44.0 dB | 20.9 dB |
Output Power | 19.0 dBm | 12.4 dBm |
We are interested in either UNS (slightly cheaper) or Fibre. The building is lit with Telstra Fibre for one of our tenants.
I have quotes that talk about 1Mbps or 2Mbps. As you can see our DSL is approx 5Mbps down.
Can someone please help me understand the 'real world' speed differences that I could expect from changing from the above DSL to a 1Mpbs Fibre connection.
We have an SBS server with approx 15 external Outlook Anywhere clients and 5 external Terminal Server clients, we also want to share some SQL data between our internal SQL Server and our hosted web site server.
We presently spend a little over $100/mth on DSL but to go to Fibre or UNS we are looking at a minimum of $700/mth. I would expect some pretty serious improvements for that sort of money. We are looking for a consistent, relaible connection that won't be slower than we presenly have.
Cheers
Paul
