400 Mbps ADSL

How do you know?

Do you have any map of TelkomSA's backbone network?

Unfortunately no capacities, however I believe total international IP transit is around 3-3.5 Gbps.

copper = $

Thats is fast!!! But would it really be of much help to everyday people like me and you? Surely we must stop somewhere?

Why? Overkill or not, bring it on!

Nevermind that Ivy thinks a 9600 dial up connection is cutting edge, all the copper in rural areas get swiped anyway, so no way forward yet

bonding device

I know you can bond together several Internet connection via the use of a technology call "broadband bonding" (you can google the term to find ample info resources), but 400Mbps sounds a bit unrealistic out of DSL lines...

Nerhzelok , I heard you can get your home "fibered" for $1,000 or so. I wish we had the same in USA, here we still need to bond DSL connections for acceptable Internet speed...

400Mbps is overkill. Unless they give us uncapped internet, this will be useless. Let's focus on getting 8Mbps first.

I think this is for companies who need it now. And yes, their connections are uncapped, I guess. How could it not be?
