Seffiks Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 NEW YORK - A group of researchers led by the University of Tokyo has broken Internet speed records — twice in two days.Operators of the high-speed Internet2 network announced Tuesday that the researchers on Dec. 30 sent data at 7.67 gigabits per second, using standard communications protocols. The next day, using modified protocols, the team broke the record again by sending data over the same 20,000-mile path at 9.08 Gbps. That likely represents the current network's final record because rules require a 10 percent improvement for recognition, a percentage that would bring the next record right at the Internet2's current theoretical limit of 10 Gbps. ad_dap('250','300','&PG=NBCAAE&AP=1089'); However, the Internet2 consortium is planning to build a new network with a capacity of 100 Gbps. With the 10-fold increase, a high-quality version of the movie "The Matrix" could be sent in a few seconds rather than half a minute over the current Internet2 and two days over a typical home broadband line. Researchers used the newer Internet addressing system, called IPv6, to break the records in December. Data started in Tokyo and went to Chicago, Amsterdam and Seattle before returning to Tokyo. The previous high of 6.96 Gbps was set in November 2005. Speed records under the older addressing system, IPv4, are in a separate category and stand at 8.8 Gbps, set in February 2006. The Internet2 is run by a consortium of more than 200 U.S. university. It is currently working to merge with another ultrahigh-speed, next-generation network, National LambdaRail. The announcement of the new record was made at the Internet2 consortium's spring meeting, which ends Wednesday in Arlington, Va. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 well reinstalled vista for the 3rd time good thing I didnt have to pay for this piece of shit program how come no one has full control over the OS not even the administrator then on top of that you have to enable administrator account on any of the flavors of vista even ultimate, then you have to take ownership of all files so so many more things................................. any support tech is going to have plenty of money going in there pockets because this shit sucks major ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mauler5150 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 I'm glad I ain't running Vista yet. Like seriously, what advantage does it have over XP SP 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 it has nothing over xp sp2 as of right now really the only things better are explorer's layout is better, better networking, better firewall, better audio, (eventually) better 3d drivers are still shoddy and better setup are the main ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest R@ndomH3ro Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 I plugged the power supply into the mobo...(big white connecter) Then I plugged the front lights and power switch according to the diagram but the mobo is not labeled pos or neg on the pins so I am guessing on the way they are plugged. But even both ways I tried nothing happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest R@ndomH3ro Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 you fried the mobo how the hell did that happen? there was no smoke? and I only hooked up the PSW cable. the actual power supply was hooked in right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 just a guess from what you said the mobo is not labeled pos or neg on the pins so I am guessing on the way they are plugged. But even both ways I tried nothing happens. if you turned on the power to the mobo when they were in the wrong position its likely that it fried the board dont need to be any smoke or anything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seffiks Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 did you have the processor and/or extension cards connected during this time please tell me no!! cause most likely if you fried the mobo and these parts were on the board they will end up dying as well at some time soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
