Soon our home internet connection speeds are going to be close to that of the ISP's speeds. Here is Australia the ADSL 2 connection speeds are up to 24000 Kbps now. Isn't that getting close to some ISP's theoretical limits? I am sure that there is no chance of anyone really getting a download from one source at that full speed though, other than straight from the ISP.

Anyway, I was just wondering... they may have to improve the backbone links soon. ;o)

That's true (about the backbone)

Even if they give the user a optic fibre connection, they will still have to get a backbone of multiple times this cappacity. Propably we are in a limit right now, that the science should solve.

Anyway those things are great because that things are really making the internet cheap for everyone.

That was the word I was looking for "Science"! Some new technology will soon have to be developed to cope with higher speeds.

That's for sure. I think that the one that fits for now is the one that uses the electric wires. It can handle 1Gb/sec so it is fine for now....
