SUPER HIGH SPEED PHONE & VIDEO
« on: March 10, 2010, 02:18:09 am »
Cisco made headlines today announcing a next generation router that will revolutionize the internet by increasing downloads to unheard of speeds.  The Cisco press release makes the following claims about the CRS-3 router:

It enables the entire printed collection of the Library of Congress to be downloaded in just over one second; every man, woman and child in China to make a video call, simultaneously; and every motion picture ever created to be streamed in less than four minutes.

Tech Ticker interviewed Kelly Ahuja, Cisco Senior Vice President and General Manager Service Provider Routing Technology Group about the new product this afternoon.

Below is Kara Swisher's take on the new product.

Provided by All Things D, March 9, 2010:

Cisco today announced a new version of its key routing system, which the networking giant said has a dozen times the traffic capacity of competitors and three times as much as the company’s previous version

Pankaj Patel, SVP and GM for the service provider business, claimed the system could in just a few minutes deliver all the movies ever made or allow everyone in China to make a video phone call at once.

That's a lot of video from your wife/girlfriend guy's.

Oh Yeah. I have heard it all before.  I remember listening to that Alexander Graham Bell fellow when he said that his new telephone invention would change the whole concept of communicating in the world!!!!  .

Well when is it that going to happen I say????

Yeah, this computer fad isn't going to last?

As for that router? It may be able to be as fast as they say? But it's more of how fast you can download. There were a few out there that bragged of there new computers and how fast it was. But if your hooked to a 56k router? it doesn't matter how fast your computer is.

I'm all for it too. But could you imagine your next cell phone bill if you have a data section in it and you are paying $0.05 for every Kb??? You hook up to a movie site and download, say all of Foxes movies. Your next bill somewhere in the ballpark of $682,583.00!!! All for a 12 second, oops.   I can see this coming now.

The phone company like ma-bell or quest is going to be getting in on this.  Thought phone wires could only handle so much
speed before they break down, but they claim that it won't hurt the phone lines...gotta see this.  All the people of china all at once
sending video instant? and downloading the library of congress at the same time.  You guys can talk to several girlfriends at the
same time...ooop's.....:icon_cheesygrin::icon_cheesygrin:

I think a Chinese professor just won the Nobel Prize for inventing fibre optics or glass optics or something like that that takes millions of telephone call a zic of a second to tell people 'I'm on the train'

When this has finally released the new routing system? I am interested to use it because I am starting to get pissed off with the slow speed of connection while I am downloading. If you have more information about this, please post here so that we know.

I saw a new router from Cisco in the stores this week.  I wonder if it is the same router.  My computer is so slow now it drives me insane sometimes.  :o  Sometimes when I talk with Peggy I can hear myself speak about 10 seconds after I spoke.  Now I know when I hear it that it has traveled 3 times but I think 10 seconds is a little extreme.

I need to do something.  I have a 1.73Ghz system with 1 gig of memory.  It is expandable to 2 gig.  Since I downloaded QQ it crawls.  I clear out the cookies and it helps a little but it is not enough.  I am trying to decide if updating to 2 gig is the answer or buying another computer. It is a 2.2Ghz with 3 gig of memory.

Any ideas out there?

Sorry for the hijack but it relates because I would consider getting this new router.

A new Router? or a new Modem? A router is only good for multi computers in the same home (same line). Cisco is a business system. For businesses uploading data to another system so all the data can be accessed from company computers in other locations.

What you have doesn't sound like having anything to do with the CPU speed of your computer. The Proxy your using may not be set up to your computer correctly? Or is the wrong one for it? Maybe give them a call and ask for help with the settings?

Vince, actually a router can also help a single computer network.  Depending on what the user does, it can be used to help filter out some of the inbound stuff that the ISP doesn't catch and that can cause your system to slow down (offload some of the firewall activity from the computer to the router) as well as be a wireless point for people who can't reach their modem from the same room as their computer (some people have to have their modems right beside their demarcation point).

That said, I believe Shaun's problem is related to something else.  Unfortunately there are so many different variables to consider before we really diagnose the problem.  Stuff that I would suggest (and doing it in this order is recommended):

1) Back up any personal data (photos, emails if you keep them on system, word and excel documents, etc., business records if kept on this computer)
2) Flush out your temporary internet files cache (this varies with whichever web browser you use)
3) Use programs like CCleaner to delete temp files (please do not use the registry cleaner unless you know what you're doing)
4) Scan for viruses/spyware/adware using spybot, malwarebytes, anti-virus (you do this after clearing files so it's faster)
5) Running chkdsk (do not do this unless you know what you're doing as you can kill the operating system) to locate cross-linked or corrupted files
6) Running a defrag

This should catch MOST of your issues.  There are a couple of other possibilities you could experiencing (for example, you can try to uninstall and reinstall QQ).  There are so many ways of doing things (I could write a book on the subject) that this is really only a general guideline.

Hope it helps.

yes, I know all about using a router on a single network. This is what I ended up having myself. After three months of having AT&T here almost everyday. After many attempts with a dozen other modems they hooked up this one that has a router / wireless / Ethernet and it worked correctly.

But my concern was if he's still (or had used) a proxy in China? and it's still trying to use it and can't find it causing the delay. I was just pointing out changing the computer (well maybe?) or getting a router would not positively fix that problem.

I'm sure this router will only be used by ISP's and telco's for distribution, not consumer or end user servicing.  If you give every home bigger bandwidth, you have to increase your throughput exponentially.  Not that every home will use it to it's fullest potential though. 

It's still good news for end users though since it will help keep the cost of bandwidth lower.

If Shaun's using a major ISP, then there should not be a problem.  The only people who would really be using a proxy out of China from the US would be spammers for the most part.  Major ISPs would not have a need to use a proxy that far away... In Canada and the US, they'd be using networks like Peer1 to route their information through.  The further you have to go (ie: US to China and back again) the more the ISP has to pay and also have agreements with (costing more).

BTW, those modems that have the built-in routers are probably the worse thing to use.  They tend to be very bad with their wireless security...whenever I get those, I disable the wireless and hook it up to a real router.
