  15. Re:Looks like a good idea on Rolling Out Broadband Internet, On The Cheap · · Score: 1

    I have dealt with ISPs in this area for a few years. 128 isn't bad since much of the traffic is going through some far away/busy peering points on questionable backbones. It would not be very useful (unless your traffic was local) to have more than 128 k to leave the region. Their telcos are government owned, and I have ate my headset trying to get them to upgrade or fix packet loss (usually caused by too much traffic anyway). They just don't care, unless the government's attitude has changed recently. We also used to sell that region DVB (one way Internet connection over satellite) so they could actually get more than 128k down link for the whole ISP. Then they would use their "normal" connection for up link. GRE tunnels if they could not get their /24 through. ..ehh....my 2 cents.... Any one looking for DVB engineer? ;)

  18. Re:Ouch on Broad Bills to Protect 'Communications Services' · · Score: 1

    My SSH connection to another server is equal to me and another person coming up with an original verbal language that is only understood by both of us. Sure in time the original language could be deciphered (de-crypted), but it is relatively as secure as SSH. Two ends communicating and nothing understood in between. (WWII code talkers come to mind). Once the law is in the books, it becomes a target-rich environment for Ashcroft & co. Once a disgruntled ISP or record company claims you have info of mass destruction (to their bottom line) the broad brush of this bill could bit us all in 5 - 20 years. Ehh.... how about my SSL connection to Amazon.......Where does that fall......Where is the line for personal freedom and expectation of relative privacy? Dam, I'm turning into a conspiracy theorist..... sheesh (turns to FBI agents....waves....)

  19. Re:Sweet! on Cisco to Acquire Linksys · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Your "pentiums out of dumpsters" have a 1.3 gig backplane? When your hit by a bus, doesn't the new guy know what you rolled? Does your "Pentiums out of dumpsters" provide mission (revenue) critical services for your boss? Is your "Pentiums out of dumpsters" modular? Can you get support from "Bobs rubbish removal" when your boss ask you for Ether Channel support out of your "Pentiums out of dumpsters". Don't get me wrong. All Linux base here unless that Pentium is the road block. If your in love with unix based routers, Check out Juniper

  22. Re:analogous to water/electric company IMHO on Bad Behavior on the 'Net - Who Pays the Bandwidth Bill? · · Score: 1

    Agreed, Patch your Pipes downstairs and Patch your servers...... Hard not to see it any other way. I guess it would heavily rely on the definition of a "leak" or malicious event in the SLA. Also who's onus it is to keep their boxes up to date, and if not up to date, is the ISP responsible for the Spike on the last /32 segment. I would say it comes down to the (Devil in the) details of the SLA....
