My travels with WDF

The continuing story of a boy, his dog and their discovery of the world outside...of WDM.
I have a laser on my house...

A little "before" action

And now the AFTERS!

It's funny to see the differences in tests though

Speakeasy's test gives me;

Download Speed: 15456 kbps (1932 KB/sec transfer rate)

Upload Speed: 1596 kbps (199.5 KB/sec transfer rate)

SpeedTest.Net gives me;


And DSL reports gives me;



Anyway you cut it, still worlds better than what I was getting. :)

And the nicest news of all, they'll be upgrading the areas to new controller cards and the 15/2 service I have now will be migrated to 30/5 for free. :)

The only downside is the router / modem they give you does not work w/ the X360 Wireless network adapter.

So I took my old router, turned it in to a client, changed a few other settings and connected it to the "new" network wirelessly.

But by far and away, the coolest thing about this whole process is the new communications box they installed at the side of the house, there was a warning on it; "This device uses Lasers that comply with FCC regulations..."

Now all I need is a shark.
