Researchers from Nokia and GFiber Labs (the experimental arm of Google Fiber) successfully achieved 41.89 Gbps download speeds on a live Google Fiber network. This marks the first time that Nokia’s 50G PON (passive optical network) technology has been used on a Google-owned network, and its one of the only examples of live 50 Gig networking in the United States.
Every few months I check to see if anyone’s built fiber to my area or if I’m still stuck with the choice between shit tier cable marketed as 1.2gbit (but rarely even gets halfway there, often below a tenth of that), something else that’s barely better than what we had twenty years ago, and wireless claiming to be 5G but performs like crap for everyone I know who’s tried it
I’ve only been looking for the last dozen or so years…
So damned sick of the bureaucratic bullshit
