Lightspeed

Sorry to hijack the thread.

I submitted a request to Lightspeed, and got this reply: " We have noted that your building has approved and is awaiting reticulation."
Please could some one tell me what that means, since this boerkie isn't very conversant in English.

reticulation is a fancy term these people use to basically install some sort of network lines to get internet to individual units

which building is it? if its a BC then there may be some delays around that

its been two years since the Lightspeed product went live in my building, this was the first speed test I did with the fibre



I have nothing negative to say actually, the cumulative downtime that I've experienced most likely two hours at most.

Unfortunately if the trustees don't make a decision by the end of this month I will be removing the product from the building, if they do agree to renewing the contract, the speed will be upped to 200mbps at no additional cost to the end user.

Having a super hard time with Github. Working with one of their technicians but it's a lot of back and forth emailing and we don't seem to be getting anywhere.

Can anyone else check for me if Github clones are also super slow on Lightspeed?

I'm testing using this repo: https://github.com/FokkeZB/Tutorial

On Lightspeed it takes almost 5 minutes to clone this repository (last result was 4m48sec), on my home Vox VDSL account it takes 32 seconds.

Was able to download this on CISP in about 5 seconds or so but on a 100/100 line, try change your MSS or MTU that seemed to help me with using the ubnt site for example

Quite slow, repo too tiny for it to ramp up. (It was 4.5MiB/s at the end versus 2.7 at the beginning)

Haven't worked with that line and company for over two years now.
