My ISP charges me a $10/month fee for having non-bundled service (only paying for internet). Still better than the +$30 I'd be paying for the bundle...So I'm only getting fucked a little. They'll try and manage to fuck c

So turn off letting your Apple ID unlock your FV volumes. A FV drive, that's locked cannot be unlocked just by having local access. You authorize Apple to make a backup of your drive if yu're having work done that may cause data l

It doesn't have to be dedicated, just bustable to a reasonably large number of subscribers at a time. Netflix will prefretch data and a small amount of burstable bandwidth goes a long way in viewing quality. This isn't about let

10Gbps isn't a lot in terms of total capacity or utilization but even a 100 extra kbps of burstable bandwidth/user can greatly improve the experience. It's the difference between buffering every 30sec and watching with onl

It's also worth noting that a 10ge flatrate port to Cogent isn't going to cost them that much either -- and then they don't have to deal with any additional hardware, just a crossconnect. But for some reason, paying an addit

A lot of the problem is probably Free and its policies. The way Free bullied, badgered and French-protectionism'ed its way into the various peering agreements (or lack thereof) could explain why v6 connectivity is worse.

They run the Kimsufi line, which is massively oversold (close to 40 "100mbps" clients per real 100Mbps). Their EG and HG server series is also way oversold if you've ever attempted to use the network to its fullest. Plus Oles

OVH is the largest not the best French host. They're a budget host that vastly oversells. OVH has no such reputation for responsiveness, their "fair" prices are based on many fold overselling their network and holding onto an

Except streaming is the only viable option due to how content licensing works. You could do slow (200Kbps) download of content you plan on watching in the evening while you're at work, but because of restrictive licensing the cost beco

Why does Comcast use so few peering locations? Because its cheaper to build and maintain only a few hubs. It's also cheaper for them to only onboard traffic a specific centers. JFK is the big US routing hub for Cogent and has

It's only tangentially related to region. Comcast bring all of Netflix's traffic onboard in NYC and their East Coast routing is handled in New Jersey. Their eastern seaboard routing is about the only area where they're not ha
