Why marketers are allowed to label the speed of a network is just beyond me as an engineer. Call it whatever you want. "Our Purple speed". Don't care. But underthat it should be labeled with a standard 1gbps/1gbps.
That would shut up xfinity's bullshit claims pretty quick. "Our new Plaid speed fiber" 200mbps/4mbps
Seriously I called them years ago asking about fiber, they were real hyped, they bragged they could give me 800! 800 what I asked. Megabytes! Megabytes or Megabits? 800 Megabits, okay fine, symmetric right? Well, no one uses upload anyway. That was their literal response.
I talked about this in another thread recently, but my favorites are the ones that are so lopsided that you literally can't send back ACKs fast enough to keep up with your own download speeds when using TCP.
I've had that! Upload so bad that I couldn't even send out a request! Even the DNS requests failed. "But you have download available". Yes, mr customer service, but how does it know what to download?
Download-only internet.
Your water line is now connected! There is no way to turn on the taps in the house.
