As a core Network Engineer at an ISP I have to say out of the dozens of tech KZreadrs I watch, I have to hand it out to you for putting effort into your network videos. Sure some points/info are off, but still contain a lot of good information for non-networking viewers. If you continue these I'd be glad to offer some perspective. Some things to add: 1. In your list of equipment you forgot the most important, a router able to handle 10gig. Switching ASICs have been able to handle 10gig for some time but many routers (non-enterprise) still route in CPU instead of the ASIC. This makes routing and also firewalling very expensive at 10gig and above. 2. Latency through a medium, copper is actually lower latency theoretically, but there is an interference mechanism that purposely introduces latency to prioritize a stable connect vs a low latency connect that might suffer loss. 3. The actual nodes introduce ns of latency enough to the point where the number of nodes is ignored vs the path taken. 4. Traceroute off a customer connection in not the end all be all result. MPLS is the primary transport within ISP domains. You will not get replies from hops that are traversing MPLS nodes. This can mean a user is seeing 5 hops but in reality it can be 5-10 more hops than displayed. This can skew the perceived results. 5. Latency is TCPs Achilles heal. Due to ACKs and windowing is what determines the throughput you will get. The more latency, means the longer the sender has to wait before sending the next window. If you ran a 10gig test with UDP you would see closer to expected results at expense of possible loss.

4. i don't have familiarity with other ISPs, but i don't know if MPLS is really all that ubiquitous for every single inter-AS traffic. AFAIK it's reserved mostly to specialized services like point-to-point (or point-to-multipoint and multipoint-to-multipoint) links. also, you do see all the hops in MPLS, you just don't know where the failure is in case there is one since the packet goes all the way to the end (the popping of the label) before being able to come back (and latency for every hop will be the same as the last one, assuming it's not dropped). in fact, this is one of the reasons it's avoided unless really needed, as it makes troubleshooting that much more annoying. what you might be referencing regarding hiding th hops are MPLS-based VPN tunnels, which as any other tunnel do in fact hide the underlying network hop layer, but like i said, these are mostly used for PtP services, such as clients that want to hire a VPLS link between multiple sites.

This video demonstrates how important it's a good ISP. these days. Good interconnections with cloud providers and CDNs, great transit providers to the broader internet, and, most importantly, upgrading the core and the edge networks in order to sell faster speeds are, together, a key factor for selling very high speeds. It's quite easy to provide one gig, two gigs, or even more with the access gear we have today. XGS-PON is coming, and "10 gig" is the next big step. But, in practice, it's not 10 gigs if you can't use 20% of your bandwidth to download a game from Steam of from Xbox servers, nether can you retrieve a file from Google Drive at anything near the speeds you pay for. Of course, it's not all about the ISP, because the global internet operators need to work on this together on this issue. It's definitively possible and, frankly, quite easy. The challenge is, of course, money. And we are not good to go thought this by selling crazy-fast speeds for everyone. Fine, most people don't care about it. Paying $70 for 1-Gig and only receiving 200-Meg most of the time is miles better than paying $70 for a line capped at 200-Meg. However, if we want to take full advantage of theses speeds and not just experiencing a small improvement over slower ones, choosing a good ISP, with a fast backbone, vast interconnections running on fast interfaces (10G for less relevant traffic and 100G for relevant peers), and other points I sad is very necessary. Anyway, loved your video. The only KZreadr I saw talking about the challenges of today's "ultra-fast" broadband.

You can use tools like namebench or GRCs DNS Benchmark to do exactly that :D You also have to consider the fact that DNS is very important for CDN delivery and load balancing/geolocation, if the DNS servers you are using don't support ECS you might get contents from the "wrong" (far away/more congested/not customized by your ISP) location

Great video guys! Lots of good info and suggestions for improving a sluggish home or office network. Just a suggestion for testing 10Gb performance, you can pick up something like a Viavi T-BERD 6000/8000 these days for just a couple of thousand or so on eBay, and SFP's are getting ridiculously cheap. Just need to make sure it is optioned out for the services you need (most are). Then you can do all sorts of testing and get consistent results. Its great for finding crappy switches and Ethernet cables, and other bottle necks. I've had some compatibility issues with the 10 Gb copper Ethernet SFP's (the Viavi thinks they are optical devices) and I haven't really dug down to see what works best since most of the stuff I deal with is optical so you will have to do a little experimenting to find a good 10Gb SFP that will work since I have no idea. By the way, higher data rate communications typically will result in slightly lower latency than existing networks since the higher speed packets take less time to get decoded/processed so they can be acknowledged/replied to faster, but as you suggested, they don't travel any faster through the medium (fiber/copper) so the improvement is only marginal.

I have FIOS gigabit, and what I found to be the biggest issue is just latency. DNS is one place, the second and perhaps more important is just having the right router that shapes traffic well. Gigabit can feel like 50 Mbps if you have buffer bloat. Why, well that DNS request and other requests get held up in a buffer causing pages and actions to appear to be delayed, well and they are. Fix the bloat and it's amazing how fast even a slower connection can feel. Knowing this is one thing, making sure you ensure each setup is working as good as it can be is another. 10Gb, well shouldn't have any buffer issues.

However, there are several SpeedTest servers in OKC, hosted by OneNet, Dobson Technologies, and Cox Communications. Also, we have AT&T U-verse V-DSL, which would probably explain why the AT&T Richardson server is pinning as being closer than any of the ones in OKC served by their competitors. We've had the same ISP since early 2003, starting with SBC Yahoo! Dial, then upgrading to SBC Yahoo! A-DSL in late 2003 (which would become AT&T Yahoo! A-DSL after SBC Communications, Inc. acquired AT&T Corp. in 2004 to become AT&T, Inc.), followed by an upgrade to AT&T U-verse V-DSL in 2013. Also, Alphabet, Inc. has a Google data center in Mayes County, OK right near the northeast corner of the state.

PTSD from Omantel's ADSL internet 😖

Y’all are complaining about you 100-10000 mps internet while I’m lucky to get 30mps lol

A lot has to do with internet routing. I do not live in a major metropolitan area and the nearest one is 300 miles away. I manage IT at my company and both offices have Fiber Internet and are only 70 miles apart. However, due to being two different ISP's and this not being a major metropolitan area, the data has to travel 1000+ miles round trip, putting the ping times for our site to site VPN at around 60ms. My house that is 7 miles from the main office has around a 40ms ping time due to a 600+ mile round trip. The "city" is a beach community and only has two data routes (regardless of ISP) and that is either east or west as there is nothing to our north. When Hurricane Michael took out Panama City Beach, it also took our all fiber optic lines to our east, leaving only the ones to our west. During the repairs, there were a couple fiber cuts to our west, cutting off our "city" entirely. AT&T had a fiber cut which took down all the cell phone towers in the city... all AT&T phones simply said "No Service" for 3-5 hours, same happened with AT&T U-Verse as well. The same thing happened with Mediacom... took out Cable Internet, VoIP, and Cable TV for nearly a week due to how severe the cut was. 100 Mbps Fiber for our primary office, located in the middle of downtown, is $450 a month on a 5 year contract. 100 Mbps Fiber for our remote office is $550 a month. The fastest internet AT&T offers at my house is 50 Mbps for $50 a month on a 2 year contract, but thankfully Cox offers Gigablast which is 940 Mbps down and 35 Mbps up for $69 a month with a 1 TB limit and $50 extra for unlimited data which is what I have. Thankfully I am able to get these speeds and since Steam has servers in Atlanta, where my ping time is around 25ms or so, I can nearly max out my connection downloading games from Steam. Needless to say, there is no data centers anywhere near us due to this being a small beach community and in the middle of Hurricane Alley.

For delays in fiber (and other mediums) one of the biggest considerations is media converters. I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned.

Woohoo! Even I'm faster. By like 15 Mbps down. Lol *75↑ 10↓*

Thats pretty fast. 60MB/s=480Mbps, 6MB/s=48Mbps

Honestly didn't know what to expect with this video but I was glued to my screen the whole time I love your content

From Hawaii, I like to speed test to San Francisco to test my connection through the cables. I typically lose about 30-40 percent of my download speed when doing that.

everyone gangsta saying first until they refresh the comments

I miss the old speedtest site where you could select the server location manually.

Throughput and bandwdith also rings true for your broadband speed and what rate your router can up/download. Just because your router has gigabit ports does not mean it can upload or download at gigabit speeds. I remember some time ago I had to choose carefully my router as most would have a lower actual throughput than the actual broadband speed.

As an employee of an isp that offers high speed fiber internet I have to say this is the lords work you are doing

here in Tucson, AZ you tell Cox you will switch to the one other provider and they literally say "good luck".

Hey @Snazzy Labs, nice video and explanation. Try “mtr” instead of traceroute. You gonna love it.

Here in Jersey channel island, the telecoms company finished their rollout of fibre (ftth) to all 100k+ residents. During the pandemic they have given every single household 1Gbps symmetrical connection for free, as long as they are already paying for a standard service.

Thanks for this educational video!

good info, i recommend testing dnsbenchmark myself.

Here in Egypt the internet is so expensive and they give a tiny amount of data cap, even after getting ftth in some places(not all of course) the fastest you can get is 200 mb/s but with 1024gb cap and the upload is not even close to half that for almost 70$.If you look it up in Egypt it's a monopoly. I don't think caps will disappear from Egypt anytime soon.

How many bigmacs for that kind of bandwidth?

A few points. I have only once come across a 10 Gb connection. It was for a major bank's data centre. Canadian banks tend to be much larger than American banks. By comparison, back in the early 90s, I was working on a job for another major bank. They had one data centre in Toronto and another in a different city. This project was to provide 4 DS3 (45 Mb each) connections between the two sites, with two coming from my company and two from the phone company. That was a blazing 180 Mb/s between two bank data centres! On the other hand, when I first started working in telecom, some of the equipment I worked on ran at all of 45.4 bit/sec! Also, with my ISP, I'm paying for 500/20 Mb. However, according to speedtest I get around 940/31! So, no complaints there. And just this morning, I decided to check a 5G C band (3.5 GHz) cell connection and was getting around 436/78 with my Pixel 6 phone.

Forgot to mention, my ISP currently offers 2.5 Gb over fibre and plans to offer 8 Gb soon.

13:10 it's me, nobody!

15:08 That looks a lot like my KZread Home screen! You have good taste in KZread videos my friend!

It also looks like you are using the Speedtest app and using a browser to run the transfer (naturally). Try running your speedtest from the browser and see what slowdowns it introduces.

@1:24 - Windows tip: if you click the menu lines in the top left of the built-in calculator you can do pretty much any conversion you want right in the app, including data conversions; it even supports date calculation of either difference between dates or figuring out dates in the future/past by adding/subtracting days, weeks, or months. I know it's hard to imagine Windows having good built in features, but hey, stranger things have happened outside of Mac land ;)

Have you adjusted RWIN sizes for such a fast connection?

Can't wait for that video about the rewiring your house to get better internet 😂

That lathe and plaster is going to be fun.

Question. That was the cost to also deploy, drench, vessels, and workers? For that cable connecting that island? Or just the manufacturing

Here in Romania a 10gbe fiber optic connections cost only 5 dollars/month (50 RON in romanian money)

Don't forget that the application server at the other end must have the resources available to handle your 10 Gbps of throughput. Very few are provisioned that way, because it is extremely costly at scale and unnecessary for most application requirements.

I have fiber to the home gig up/down in Phoenix with Century Link. Full Unifi setup and running Edge Router 4, fiber runs to the SFP port on the router from the curb... It is awesome... latency is stupid low....

A Ookla Speedtest server is not only selected by physical location. The Ookla system determines the best server by using a geo-IP system to find the physically closest servers, then your client pings those servers and uses the one with the lowest latency, making the selected server the closest server from a network perspective. So not necessarily the physically closest, but the quickest to respond.

Would love to have this “problem”

high quality content! thank you very much!

Just wanted to let you know I'm hearing some audio compression artifacts. Haven't noticed it in previous videos.

PIA is awesome! I've had them for 3 years now! Plus I feel ya on upload/download/throughput speeds

Great Video, I am moving 2TB from 1 external drive to another and all my Mac says is 1 day how do a get the actual rate it is being transferred at. Thanks

Officially, you're one of my favorite KZreadrs out here!
