Speed Ironies

with one comment

There is something deeply wrong with the world when I feel better connected at home than I do at work:-

  1. My home broadband connection is faster than the Internet in the office by a factor of five.
  2. Actual mobile broadband speeds are much better here in west London than they are in the centre, where the operators have spent more to build lots of base stations (and yes, I know why this happens, it’s still not right!)

  1. “My home [...] connection is faster than the Internet in the office by a factor of five.”

    That’s been true everywhere I’ve worked except for the ISPs and my current employer (an .ac.uk tied directly into JANET).

    Even when I was on a modem at home and the employer had a “2M” leased line.
