Most uploads are downloaded many times. This RU-vid video was uploaded once but downloaded hundreds of thousands of times.

maybe in some countries yes, but my ISP gives the same upload speed for every package but different download speeds, it really just depends.

Yeah comcast does this. They keep raising my download speed free of charge due to competition but if I mention upload they offer business packages for a couple hundred more at least.

Yeah not 100% true. Though money does have a lot to do with this. Their networks can only route so much out which is a lot expensive than to take data in.

​@@maddawgzzzz on less the isp has something configured wrong it should be same if its going in or out of the network.

This in many ways is leftover from the days of old. Back before ADSL businesses needed to use ISDN lines or if they were lucky and could afford it a T1 line(mostly used by things like banks). ISDN lines were symmetrical lines that worked a bit like an ADSL line, but far slower and far more expensive. ISPs got used to charging lots for these sorts of packages and have limited uploads ever since because they already knew businesses were willing to pay for the upload speeds.

They probably dont offer the 3rd option in some area so their best choice is the second. The ISP is screwing them big times.

They don't particularly want anyone to go for the second option. It's a marketing tool companies use all the time, you make your 2nd best product only a tiny bit cheaper than your best product, and then make it out like your best product is a really good deal in comparison and underpriced, rather than the reality which is just the 2nd best is overpriced and the best is the price they actually want to sell at.

Makes a lot of sense. Fibre tends to be full duplex, so on a single fibre you would expect up to 1Gb up and 1Gb down at the same time. But if multiple houses/offices are running on the same fibre (which would be expected in a massive city such as Tokyo), you essentially share these 1Gb limits. So given that people tend to download a lot more than they upload, the upload tends to be much less congested and thus allowing you to reach higher speeds than on the more used download.

@@qianzyl fascinating, that makes so much sense!

qianzyl Tokyo isn’t a city.

@@FlopFan69 Depends on your definition of city. Yes I do know that Tokyo is not classified as 市 but rather its own thing as 都, and that japan has a strict classification sytem as to what group any city falls into. That said in english there is no such distinction, and we would just refer to it as a city. Also, I don't know why this is important for the conversation.

@@ghostedragon964 DSL ?

Like his other videos are totally redundunt & unrelatable

but my fibre upload is faster

Wow that actually makes sense

The original reason is because originally you needed modems that decoded tones, and there were only so many 'tone bins' available, so you dedicated more to download as that's what the majority of people needed. For servers there were T1 & E1 (ISDN) connections that gave synchronous connectivity.

Thanks for saving me a comment!

@@realcartoongirl The start of the internet was not 2020 my dude.

Nope, just lies

There is a lot more to it, but at the same time there probably doesn't need to be a lot more to it. The networks, the hardware and the backend agreements have never been designed to have much flexibility in this regard, but that's a human decision more that a fundamental issue of what would be possible if the network had been designed to be more flexible.

pyrocynical?

Youre just waiting for the problem to solve itself if you ask me.

I see no problem

That doesn't make enough money. The original reason for asynchronous internet speed was to keep consumers from running their own servers and corner the market to stop potential competition.

300 Mb/s is about 30 MB/s and 150 Mb/s is about 15 MB/s. I use divide by 10, instead of 8 to compensate for header related losses. So 15 MB/s up is very good. Mine is 1 Mb/s up, which is 100 KB/s.

Not on Finland iirc. They are like 100/10 and you have to pay more for 100/100. Well, we have symmetrical up and down here in SEA area. Mine is like 50/50

Not sure, I can upload internally between windows machines at well above 700 Mbps (over 1 Gbps ethernet, above 2 Gbps over wifi 6 between phone and windows desktop) While windows is known for having limitations, they should be so high that if you ain't running over 20 Gbps you shouldn't be encountering them. If you are, then yep Linux is better. If you are below that, chances are that... It's so happened you got a bump in internet speed at the same time you got rid of windows

@@Anankin12 Yup. Though in fairness, if I am to use Linux again, though, there needs to be some conditions met in order for me to consider going back to it, because VideoProc needs a Linux version, and until Samsung comes out with a new PSSD T8, which would hopefully be 100% Linux compatible, or perhaps look for different PSSD drives that could work very well with Linux, I won't be returning to it any time soon.

USA ISPs have little reason to upgrade their customers with their oligopoly over the populous. They charge a premium for fiber (if they even offer it at all), plus a bunch of rural territory still has at best satellite. Most new lines laid to new customers tends to be copper due to it being cheaper. The lines are owned privately in most cases, so any competition needs capital to even start by laying their own lines, which is an infrastructure nightmare in itself. Many municipalities have also been captured by contracts that forces them to block new competition from moving in. Depending on where you live there may be no interest in the local government to do anything about it. Our only real hope at this time is for states and municipalities to get their heads out of the sand and run and manage their own lines for internet like a utility similar to electricity or water. An example would be Chattanooga. If enough make the switch the larger private companies would actually have to compete with a better and cheaper product (after tossing millions into marketing and lobbying first of course). A more exotic solution would be competition from newer tech like usable and competitive wireless internet. I'm not sure for Canada, but they also have a geography problem in the vastness of their land. Copper is cheaper so you can cover more land for the same investment.

centurylink is laying alot of fiber and in europe also

@Mekronid So no excuse for the UK to still be nearly all copper. Except that the government is so consumed by the self-inflicted wound of Brexit that it has been paralysed for years.

My true fiber is less cost than the main competitor's copper-to-fiber which the competitor just started offering this. They're still slow and charge a premium. 1gb/1gb for $55/month FiOS versus 100mb/10mb Charter Spectrum for $70/month. Spectrum only does this because they're the largest one here but FiOS has been expanding.

UK here is also still on a mix of fiber and copper.

Right w/ you. I have 6 up and I'm on wifi. Oddly enough, we only use cable for the computers. I sometimes wonder if part of my issue is the router splitting the signal. Guess I won't be streaming. Also, while he's saying how great the future will be, these guys will most likely still keep the signal throttled back unless you pay a preminum price.

Precisely what I was going to say, before I saw your comment, and I wonder why it wasn't mentioned in the video. This is a business & money issue much more than technical. ISPs just DON'T WANT us to make money off of their connection.

Yep. If you want to make money they want you to pay for a business connection with symmetrical speeds. It's almost $2k a month for our 200/200 fiber.
