Yes, I know that with copper pair there are technical limitations to the upload speed. Both with high speed modems (V90) and with ADSL. But fiber, which is what I have since very recently, doesn't have any technical limitation. The limitation is arbitrary, or commercial.
Commercial / for marketing reasons. I think the asymmetric connections on fibre are offered because consumers who move from xDSL will feel more comfortable with an asymmetric spec. Silly, I know.
They assume that if I want symmetrical speed is because I want to serve things.
Not an unreasonable assumption. Is there any other reason? -- Per Jessen, Zürich (19.5°C) http://www.dns24.ch/ - free dynamic DNS, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
