LAWD. 1000Mb /s????????

sekin67835 07-26-2012 11:30 PM

1Gigbit/s = 124megabyte/s. That's pretty fast. Hopefully they bring that to Canada soon.

knight604 07-26-2012 11:33 PM

wont this be useless like all other fiber optics unless you live in a newer residential area
telus 25mbps is enough for me ATM...and I have lots of people in the house streaming and downloading all day long

We get $13/$22cdn 100/1000Mpbs internet in Asia with free installation.

This google fibre thing is the same shit we have here?

dangonay 07-27-2012 07:36 AM

It's a trial. BTW, does anyone know how the Shaw gigabit Internet trial went? They were planning it way back in 2010, but I never bothered to follow it.

Gnomes 07-28-2012 07:32 PM

I would much rather pay google what I am currently pay for cheapass shaw to get better internet service.

CP.AR 07-28-2012 10:42 PM

For the free one u have to pay for the installation fee which is about 300 dollars but I think is 5 or 7 years free Internet.

It would take at least 10years or more to get to Canada and I doubt The goggle TV package will be in Canada since CRTC put a lot of restriction on boardcasting limitations in Canada. One of the reasons why Netflix Canada sucks so bad compare to Netflix US...

Sky_High 07-29-2012 01:29 AM

You'll have to pay $300 of installation fee for the Gigtabit Internet eventually too.
Just that they decided to waive it as a promotion to launch it.

What's $300.....4-5 months of "high-speed internet" from Shaw/Telus?

If 25 mbps is enough for you then you must be using some slow DL service.

Newsgroups will saturate whatever link you have.

hotshot1 07-29-2012 11:03 AM

Google never fails to amaze me

Speed2K 07-29-2012 11:31 AM

Wow, I'd sign up for sure! :fullofwin:

willystyle 07-29-2012 11:52 AM

Just like Google Voice, I don't think we will be getting this anytime soon because of the CRTC.
