- DocTomoe 5y agoWorse is the unpredictability ... my family in a 150-souls-village in the middle of nowhere got FTTH a few weeks ago. Meanwhile, I am happy to get 6 MBit/s in central Berlin.
- jacquesm 5y agoThat's pretty easy to understand though: that 150 soul village is in the middle of a much less dense area than the heart of Berlin, so a line that would pretty much always be saturated in Berlin will have plenty of capacity left in that small village. For the best - and cheapest - bandwidth: total deregulation of telcos. Like what happened in Romania, which has the cheapest and best connectivity of any European country. Which really isn't what you'd expect.
- tomatodevice 5y agoI'm not sure if I prefer a slow ftth deployment or the spaghetti cabling of hell from Bucharest streets. There must be a way to do it correctly...
- jacquesm 5y agoLast I lived there (2015) it was very well organized and more reliable than most other infrastructure in Romania.
- mro_name 5y agothe lines rarely are the issue but the copper-cable length from home to the DSLAM: Less cable-meters mean less reachable households per DSLAM. And the DSLAM costs - both hardware and maintenance. Regardless if 2 or 20 customers connect. So the carrier wants to conect as many as possible and so they have to suffer cable length.
