| Re: Britsys convince me! Aww, 1000/1000 makes me so jealous, too bad newedge isn't in my area (are there any plans to expand the area it covers)... Currently I'm on 384/384 sdsl from megaripoff i mean megapath and it costs 139/m... It is, however a routed connection, and I get 9-12ms ping to the gateway.
I have some questions tho... Is newedge equipment better than covad's (i know that newedge offers 2.3/2.3 sdsl and covad tops out at 1.5/1.5), as in does it work out to greater distances...
Rhythms and Northpoint used coppermountain stuff and coppermountain dslams kick the crap out of covad's nokia (my covad loop at 13,900 couldn't hold sync at 768 and my rhythms loop at 14,500 never dropped sync at 784). What kind of equipment does newedge use? | |

Newbridge was acquired by Alcatel a couple of years ago.
We have customers with good condition loops 15,000' in length holding 768/768.

| Re: Britsys convince me! Do the Newbridge DSLAM's have that advantage against covad's dslams in adsl mode as well? If so, I'll recommend that he goes through a newedge isp (he's leaning more towards adsl right now). Also, where would he be routed if he were to go through britsys, as stated earlier, he's in the bakersfield area. | |

| Re: Britsys convince me! Lasker,
If he has PacBell available in his area he should go for that, especially if he can find an independent ISP that sells PacBell in his LATA.
Our POP is in Portland Oregon, most users in Northern California are about 16 to 20 ms to the gateway, ADSL-LS may be slightly higher than the SDSL.
