.but dude if you have just one single desktop PC, then you dont even need any routers. just use the modem

charmer said:Wifi is the best option if you have a laptop,pda,IP CAM or Pocket PC (and many more you can connect wireless) so you can access them all and charge ppl money for using your internet if you have a wider coverage.but dude if you have just one single desktop PC, then you dont even need any routers. just use the modem

SLT can do better

512kBps is the maximum. OK. No company in the world gives the full bandwidth. When more users are using ADSL, it will slow down. This is the deal they have with the international ISP(s).dineitdark said:well i don't know how SLT works and how many stuff it have for it self but one thing is clear. u guys can start improving the service qulity of the couurent ADSL service given to your customers. i mean just look at the whole thing.... this is crazy people. we don't even get our 512 correctly. how come we keep hopes on a company like that? why don't this SLT people try and do something to hadel the traffic genrated by all its custormers more efficiantly? just try acsessing a site or two at the congested times...like when its 1.00pm - 4.00pm its damn slow! shit u SLT people should seriously consider improving this situvation before say that we are biggest in south asia... blahblahbalh shit! get some more bandwidth, and some good routers, skills, plans and improve the connectivity of the ADSL subsribers.
And then u can aim at the sky![]()

You can always access local sites at full speed, if the servers are fast enough.
I have a friend in Australia who has a ADSL2+ connection, from iiNet. They provide the fastest connection speeds there. Even if he uses private torrents, with full of seeds, the maximum speed he can get is around 6Mbps. This is a 24Mbps connection btw.

You think he's only downloading one torrent at a time?dineitdark said:I guess ur friend can let some 4 torrents run at full speed simulteniously, making use of the full bandwidth. but then he'll have to find a storage solutionman..... i can't even imagin that much of bandwidth. will we be ever able to get that much speed at our homes? oh... just imagin 24Mbps !@%^&$!& in srilanka... well its just a dream... but may be not who knows...

Nope. SLT doesn't have ADSL2+.The_Ace said:AFAIK, SLT already has ADSL2. I have a friend who has a SLT ADSL 20 (or is it 10?) mbps DL speed and he had that connection for more than 2 years now..
There isn't anything called ADSL2. It's either ADSL or ADSL2+.The_Ace said:is ADSL2 != ADSL2+ ?

ah! I see. Learnt something new today..Anusha said:There isn't anything called ADSL2. It's either ADSL or ADSL2+.![]()
Anusha said:You think he's only downloading one torrent at a time?
He has more than 1TB of HDD space. And you know what, he can only download 20GB per month. We can download 80GB+ with a 512k connection. So what do you think it better? More data or speed?
SLT will give ADSL2+ once they get the approval from TRC. I heard that they have already done the testing. The speeds will be more than 10Mbps. Anyway, I have no idea about the tariffs. Surely a quota system will come into play.
