Forget DTV; FCC now planning "all-IP" phone transition
- tlrobinson 17y agoHow about we get the telcos to provide the decent bandwidth they promised first... http://www.newnetworks.com/ShortSCANDALSummary.htm http://www.newnetworks.com/ShortSCANDALSummary.htm
- ars 17y agoIP was never designed for real time reliability. If they want a packet switched phone network, fine. But a new protocol, not IP. A protocol where you request a channel and are guaranteed a certain bandwidth. A protocol where each packet takes the same route, so jitter is minimized. A protocol where the real time nature of packets is known, so routers can intelligently decide which packets to send first, and which not to bother delivering at all.
