How long will we have to wait for this?
A MELBOURNE PhD student has developed technology to make broadband internet up to 200 times faster without having to install expensive fibre optic cables.
Harnessing the potential power of telephone lines and DSL broadband, the technology will deliver internet speeds up to 250 megabits per second, compared with current typical speeds of between one and 20 megabits per second.
There was some article earlier this year posted on here about some guy that installed the world's fastest Internet connection for his mother. I asked before and I'm still wondering if current hard disk technology can even write the data as fast as it's downloaded.
This is a completely non techie answer, but a software application to download into memory, and then onto the hard drive at a more leisurely pace would be a workaround to cope with the speed.
Or is this "download into memory" already available?
