i'll concede you're probably right. In the late 1990s i had a Promise ATA 100mbit IDE card, and i swore that someday, i would have an IDE connection to the internet. Now, my CPE is called a terminal, but it's some proprietary cable from the terminal to the router. And my upstream isn't quite 100mbit (on starlink; it's about 40-50. On at&t 4g LTE it was 30-65mbit/s upstream). so i'm still not at IDE speeds, yet. maybe on my cellphone in the metro i get that speed, though...
