But remains our best choice.
BTW, I got my hands on a fiber optics connection from Ogero where I work, I probably should have written a review on that...
Usually it works really well, low latency, speeds as advertized) But today it has been suffering from very frequent micro disconnection(it immediatly breaks ssh connections :( ) I couldn't game on it, nor could I get a reliable latency number, because they only enabled it at work at port 22, I did sometimes proxy through it for http but soon afterwards stopped doing that(not worth getting caught) But it really is a different world of internet...
It is not a different world of internet. This should be the norm. Intermittent disconnections here and there is fine as long as the connection is stable overall and pings are good to neighbouring areas for the various applications.
I am currently abroad and using a 25 mbps connection (25 download and 25 upload) (and this real 25 mbps connection). I take internet for granted these days and whenever anything comes up on the internet (patches, updates, streaming), I don't think about whether I should download or stream or not. I think about whether I need to or not.
Our internet infrastructure is pathetic and the future seems bleak. Countries around the world are moving away from these pathetic speeds and Lebanon is still lingering in the old ages. For a country that 56 kbps in the late 90s with a bunch of other regional countries, it is sad to see it lagging so much behind.
