Re: Wait.. this is broadband .. right?
Fast past means no interleaving.
This is not exactly the way this works but it will give you the idea.
Interleaving basically does a data check making sure there was minimal or no data loss in the line. When Interleaving is used your ping or latency as they call it will rise. For example Gamby the Gamer Plays on the Im a Camper Counter Strike Server. On fast path with out the corruption checking Gamby pings 45. Now Gamby upgrades dsl and is now placed on Interleaving. Gamby's new ping to the same server is around 100 to 150. Gamby is now so frustrated that he has to lead his shots into the middle of next week to get a hit with the sniper rifle, that he spikes his mouse with extreme prejudice. The mouse bust into many pieces and a splinter takes out Gamby's eye.
All of this could of been avoided if Gamby had a fast path alternative or was not put on Interleave until he complained of data corruption. |
