Singnet Fibre Optic Broadband Speed Discussion

[Jamesykl]

How many of you have signed up for it during the Roadshow? Heard that Singnet have started installing the ONT in homes starting this week. Please post your speedtest results here.

 

[jeffong]

Pls also share if the ONT supplied is the Huawei or Ericsson version. I'm trying to determine if Singtel connects their customers to their own Opco, does that mean that we won't be able to sign up for other fibre services from RSP's connecting thru nucleus connect.

 

[Jamesykl]

Up till now, there are no one connected to Singnet exStream? I am sure there are people who sign up. Can you do your speedtest on www.speedtest.net and showcase your broadband speed here?

Have not test it yet. Was wondering why it drop so much compared with the Singtel Engineer's Laptop. His test on the giga port was 199.96Mb/s for download. What was wrong with my desktop or the 10m long cable causes the drop.

Could be using direct connection. Are you on wireless? Check out www.speedguide.net. There are many tweaks on windows registry and ipconfig to improve the bandwidth. New configs are out for Windows 7.

What Program did the Singtel Engineer uses? maybe custom version to trick the user that the speed is great? keke
or a custom command to unlock the speed [who knows]

Only if he uses speedtest.net or speedtest.sg.

Try bandwidth speedtest on Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Jose. Try HK, Korea and Japan. Traceroute pass through San
Jose as one of the hop for US connection.

[etherealism]

y sian? 37mbps to los angeles seems really gd leh.. considering that international bandwidth is capped at 25mbps

 

[t258jgn]

speed for weekday evenings?

 

[Jamesykl]

I am using a gigabit network adapter. If I am using wireless connection, will there be a significant slowdown in speed as compared to cabled connection? The problem with cabled connection is that you have to do trunking from the living room to the study room. The best is to wall hack and run the cable concealed. Is there any alternative solution?

mayb not really have a cap on the speed? they juz put it to protect themself so users wont complain low oversea speed ?

can those singnet fibre user do a multi segment download with download manager from oversea servers ? what the speed you can get ?

 

[lestervalen]

Hi James, as requested. Busy with work lately, this time uses another PC to try with 1.5m cable direct to giga port.



San Jose is real pain to past through highest speed as below
