Speed@100 Mbps

- How fast is your network?
- It is faster than most hard disks! Traffic within our own network is true 100 Mbps full-duplex and it is actually faster than normal hard disks (1999)!

  • Traffic within our system
    • Below is an old snapshot of CuteFTP's statusbar during a transfer with internal traffic (within our neighbourhood). It is no problem to reach 8000+ kB/s with the computers available now (2004). It was harder back in 2000 when the snapshot was taken.

  • Traffic across the city is mostly limited by the other party just having 1 Mbps or 10 Mbps, but a few have 100 Mbps-connections and 40 Mbps is possible (to sustain!) most of the time.
  • Traffic within Sunet is ranging between 3 and 20 Mbps, depending on how much other traffic on that network we have to share bandwidth with.
  • Traffic to the rest of the Internet is as always depending on distance and traffic-patterns between us and the other party.
