Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
While we're all celebrating Charter's 60Mbps broadband access here in the US, the Korea Communications Commission is spending $24 billion to secure 1Gbps access by 2012.
1Gbps allows you to download a 120-minute film in 12 seconds.
There's one small catch to the commission's plan, which is that only large cities in Korea will have access to the top tier broadband. But surrounding smaller areas will still have access to 50 to 100 Mbps speeds...or about 10 to 20 times the speed of what I get in my DSL-only apartment building.
In the words of Matt Buchanan, "That and bibimbap? Man I hate Korea."

Re: Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
Sometimes I feel sorry for myself because I am born in India. These people are so ahead and here in India we have ISP who cheat on even 64 kbps plans!
Are we just supposed to see how the world progresses and applaud it? or is our Govt. even working on such issues? Our Govt. is more busy with their defending pub-attacks and anti-valentine day activities.
I know we have a great "Indian culture", but sometimes I ask my self "Do we have anything more than our Indian culture?"
I am sick of it man!

i feel the same way man.
i dont think India will ever see such speeds.if the Govt takes such a long time just to finalise the sale of 3G spectrum then theres is no doubt that they will think of giving 100mbps bb a few thousand years down the line.

This diverse "Indian culture" plus the usual list is one of the reasons we are divided so much

Re: Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
First let 2MBPS become a standard world wide, for say 500 UL a month, then we'll talk of 1GB

Re: Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
2 Mbps- 500 UL a month? Wow i don't see that in the near future for sure. I toh don't have any hopes regarding high speed net in India.

Re: Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
In Thane(Mumbai), the cost of 2 mbps unlimited connection is rs. 22,000/- (twenty two thousand). The connection is provided through a fiber optic cable. The bandwidth would have been provided by VSNL. It is the same bandwidth that cable operators resell to their LAN customers.
I had inquired about this about a month back when I was planning to host a commercial production server at my home(the plans has been dropped now). I am yet to clarify if it is 2 mega byte per sec or 2 mega bit per sec.
I don't find the cost reasonable. May be, because I inquired through my local cable operator, his commissions may have added up. But still, how much do you think will the cost be without his commission? It would be atleast 20,000 I think.

Re: Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
Oh...if only we had 0.1% of that speed as the standard...and unlimited!
Anyway, I don't see this happening in the next 10 yrs.

Re: Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
kick my butt? what the hell are you gonna do wid such speeds? And India sucks just because of this bullshit? You have to live with more ethics than just bullying yourself for having born here! India is a great country and it has got more to do then just an asylum of high speed internet. Are you guys out of mind? I mean... wat do fk r u gonna do wid 100Mbps even? download movies? porn? games? ... wat else do u know ? R u gonna setup an online operating system? R u excepting some fantansy or something useful..... **** yourself guys who hate India just because of this

Re: Korea to Get 1Gbps Downloading by 2012
Ok agreed, we Indians mostly download games, movies and stuff. Then why are the developing nations adopting faster internet in the range of Mbps? What do they have to do with these superfast connections in Mbps and Gbps? They could have stuck with 256kbps ADSL. Why is technology developing from 56kbps dialup to 256kbps to 1Mbps to 8Mbps broadband and so on?...We too love our country but that does not mean we should not criticize it for what is wrong? What is the government doing with all of the taxpayer's money?...There are more questions that answers...
BTW, you used too much abusive language and your post has been reported.
