- dzhiurgis 3y agoHow much of that is international bandwidth?
- killingtime74 3y agoI guess Australia is international? So most? Depends on how much your ISP has provisioned of course. There are some very premium ones and ones that are less so. You get what you pay for as usual
- CaptainHardcore 3y agoIt’s fibre from the home to your provider. New Zealand's current international connectivity is provided by three under-sea fibre optic cables with a combined total throughput of 73 terabits per second.
- Am4TIfIsER0ppos 3y agoWhile we're on the topic of nonsense numbers Wolfram Alpha estimates that to be 14 megabits per person
- killingtime74 3y agoOr it could be gigabits available to any person. Since it would be 14 megabits per person per second right, assuming 100% utilisation?
- Am4TIfIsER0ppos 3y agoI merely told it to divide 73 terabits by the population of New Zealand and to express that in megabits. So yeah no consideration of usage patterns: "nonsense numbers" just like the supposed 46G wifi this story is about.
- killingtime74 3y agoI do agree that all these numbers are pretty meaningless . Somehow truth in advertising laws don't apply to many of these claims. Only seen the Australian regulator really crack down on it.
