dedicated t1

I¡¯ve had a so-called ¡®premium¡¯ rapidshare account for a few years by now and rarely had download problems. Though I¡¯m not sure why they use the ¡®premium¡¯ nick lol!Anyway since about a couple of weeks. I¡¯ve noticed my download speeds dropping gradually. To make matters worse. I¡¯ve also noticed that on split downloads (usually rar files) part 01 seems to take the longest by far with download speeds gradually dropping well below 20kb. I¡¯m on a dedicated T1-like connection with great download speeds usually well above 700kb. For the past week download issues with rapidshare have come to a head as 7 out of 10 files never finish. They usually get to around 94-97% with adequate (not great by any means) download speeds but then their speeds die to nil and my download manager is retrying those files forever without getting anywhere or finishing them whilst subsequent other files still download at great or at least adequate speeds. Just to make sure and since I am a heavy downloader often exceeding the 5GB daily download limit imposed by the evil rapidshare bean-counters. I have used some points and opened a new one month account. But the same problems arise when using that account to download!I¡¯ve tried five different download managers for the past week but all show the same phenomenon with rapidshare downloads. I also have a megaupload account and do not experience any problems using that account. I am running XP-SP2 on the desktop and Vista Ultimate on the laptop and experience the same download issues on both machines. My primary (and preferred) download manager is Flashget (latest v1.9 public release) but as I said all others that I've tried show the same issues when using rapidshare links. Rapidshare¡¯s support is at its usual best ¨C as in: marked by a pronounced absence of any replies to my repeated support requests. And the user forum at rapidshare org for some reason does not work for me here. I am now working in China since about six months; though I don¡¯t think that neither that forum nor rapidshare as a whole has been blocked by China¡¯s internet censor-dictatorship. Has anyone experienced similar issues?Can anyone think of or advice a working solution (short of dumping rapidshare)?Thanks for all help and advice. (IMG:) mmm.. let me seeI have experimented this issue using a premium account from RS too. I guess that you can have one of the following problems:a) All people know that the internet connection in China has been monitored by the goberment.. and unfortunatelly RS links has been related with pirated software. Try using some application to hide your real IP (like HideIP) b) That RS admins are applying restriction to user from China or users with a excesive download c) That rs connections are being connected to a proxy by you Internet provider d) attempt downloading using this way:http://user:password@rapidshare.............. Or. maybe th RS servers are very.. very satured. because i'm now in Mexico and I have experimented the same issue some times.... Regards mmm.. let me seeI have experimented this issue using a premium account from RS too. I guess that you can have one of the following problems:a) All people know that the internet connection in China has been monitored by the goberment.. and unfortunatelly RS links has been related with pirated software.

Or. maybe th RS servers are very.. very satured. because i'm now in Mexico and I have experimented the same issue some times.... Regards As for your suggestion a if the Chinese evils block a domain they totally block it ¨C no exceptions. Hence since I can download about 60-70% of RS files OK. I don¡¯t believe that RS has been blocked here ¨C as yet. Your suggestion b: It might well be that RS are applying restrictions on Chinese users and/or what they deem to be excessive download users (see the 25GB over 5 days or 5GB/day limits). But given the fact that I can download some files and others stop and that those that stop at around 94-97% continue to attempt downloading this line of reasoning seems to make no sense. What would RS achieve by restricting user downloads at the 94-97% mark? The user is still downloading and hence ¨C as RS claims ¨C hogging bandwidth. Makes no sense to me ¡­Your suggestion c: Again that seems to be odd; if I can download some files OK but others just stop at the 94-97% mark a proxy / ISP issue doesn¡¯t seem to apply here. The way I understand the proxy / ISP issue and perhaps I¡¯m wrong here is that if my ISP does use proxies. I simply can¡¯t use RS ¨C no exceptions. If not well. I can download. Also this is a new issue that has developed just over the past few weeks ¨C no problems prior to that. Ok that could well imply that RS restrictions of some sort or other are being applied but knowing RS they either block you for a few days or just let you download. This 94-97% stoppage issue doesn¡¯t seem to fit in here. This is very odd indeed. I hope someone can shed more light on this as I¡¯m sure I¡¯m not the only one out there going through this crap. All help is much appreciated. (IMG:) It happened to me too that I was not able to download full files. The reason I found was: rapidshare has a limit of how many GB can be downloaded within 5 days - if I remember right it was 20 GB back then. I had reached 19.98 GB and had no problems finishing downloads of small files. Larger files downloaded but the download stopped at some point or crashed without a warning (I used a download manager). The bad thing was that the MB of each of the never finished downloads (I had tried again and again...) counted towards the limit. After I found what I thought is the problem - download limit exceeded - I gave the account a break of a few days so that it could fill up itself again. Ever since it works flawless.. and I closely watch out to not exceed the limit. I hope that makes sense for you. Here's the actual rule: You may download 25 GB within five days. This means in other words that you can download 5 GB every day. You can also "burst" and download 15 GB today and 10 GB tomorrow but this means that you will not be able to download anything the following three days because we check how much you have downloaded in the last five days. 25 GB = 25.000.000.000 Bytes. I used to use the later versions of flashget but moved back to version 173 build 128 because it gave an incorrect taly of amount downloaded ( rapidshare admited that) . I also found that ocationaly the later vertions of flashget would not compleat the download. This apparently they have fixed. I would be carfull about using the later vertion of flashget. It opens a lot ports and gatways on your machine.

"Full T1 Line" is a term typically used to describe a circuit that provides 1.5 megabits per second of high speed Internet access which is the most common type of T1. A Full T1 can also be used to ry telephone lines and/or VoIP calls both of which are covered within the "Voice. PRI" and Voice Over IP sections here. Nearly all office-based and modern retail businesses require some type of Internet access in order to perform their daily operations and many have mission critical Internet needs that allow them to continue business operations at all. There are many choices to fulfill this need for Internet access including Dial-up connections. ISDN. DSL. Cable. Wireless applications a T1 Line or something larger like a DS3 or OC-3 (far less common due to high cost). A T1 Line consists of 24 channels that transmit data at 64Kbps each therefore giving a Full T1 Line the capacity to transmit 1.54Mbps of data synchronously (upstream and downstream). Using today's standard email applications and common Internet searching this amount of bandwidth could support anywhere from 1 to approximately 75 users depending on their needs preferences and the company's budget. Most commonly Full T1 Lines are used in offices with 5 to 50 employees. A T1 circuit provides the most reliable bandwidth available when leased from a high quality T1 Provider which is why businesses are willing to pay more for a T1 than for other services like DSL or Cable. In some applications a T1 can save money for a company who uses a less reliable bandwidth connection. Since multiple services can be combined on a single T1 cost efficient solutions are often available if you know what service to ask for (see "Integrated T1" below) and which providers offer those services in your area. Internet T1 pricing starts at approximately $400 per month but can cost more than $1000 per month if the location of the installation requires a long loop to connect to the network of your local phone company to the network of the T1 provider. This is usually only the case in very small towns or rural areas where facilities are less dense. Most metropolitan areas have many choices of T1 providers at least one of which will usually be closer and cheaper than the rest. Pricing will fluctuate dramatically depending on the Provider and the location of your business which is why it is sometimes safer and easier to use an experienced Telecom Consultant such as to guide you in finding the best solution. For example some companies that do not require much bandwidth or have a small budget might need to opt for a Fractional T1 Line. A Fractional T1 line typically describes an Internet circuit that uses a "piece" or a "fraction" of a Full T1. Fractional T1's are also used for telephone lines or even integrated T1s but less often then for Internet access. A Fractional T1 can be sold in nearly any fraction of a 24 channel. 1.54Mbps circuit. For example out of the 24 channels in a Full T1 line. 12 channels might be used in a Fractional T1 to provide a 768k connection which is half of 1.54Mbps. Other Fractional sizes include 1.1Mbps. 512k. 384k. 256. 128k and even 64k although the smaller sizes are very uncommon. As T1 Providers have become more competitive prices on Full T1s have come down so much that Fractional T1s have become less cost effective. For example a Fractional T1 of 768k ries only half of the bandwidth of a Full T1 but usually saves only 5% to 15% of the price of a Full T1. This doesn't make much sense in applications where only 1 or 2 T1 lines are needed unless the budget is extremely tight. However this can add up to significant savings when using hundreds of T1's across a large company's multi-location VPN or frame relay network. A PRI (Primary Rate Interface) line is somewhat different and more popular than a standard Voice T1 because it is true "digital trunking" which allows for even more advanced calling features. A PRI line provides 23 telephone lines per T1 because the 24th channel is used to ry useful data for signaling and other features like special caller ID information called ANI (Automatic Number Identification). Since the transmission is digital the quality of a telephone connection over a PRI line is unsurpassed providing crystal clear reception that is noticeable to the user. The use of DID (Digital Inward Dial) numbers and calling features like hunting and rolling allow you to use 23 digital telephone lines to provide service to potentially 30 to 40 employees depending on how often they will need to use their phone. Instead of guessing on the number of DID's to put on a PRI line it's important to figure out the maximum number of simultaneous calls that could be placed at any given time. Having too few telephone lines causes costs more in a loss of productivity than it would cost to simply add more phone lines to keep your employees busy. This is why it is important to figure out the proper balance of telephone lines vs. DID numbers. The cost of a PRI is also typically lower than other forms of telephone service (except Voice Over IP in some applications) with actual pricing depending on the Provider of the service and your business location. Between the features price and quality of a PRI it is the primary choice for businesses large enough to take advantage of it's multiline functionality and benefits. An Integrated T1 Line is one of the most popular T1 solutions for small businesses because it provides local telephone service long distance and bandwidth all on a single connection and a single bill. The consolidation of these services with one company is more convenient and more cost effective than purchasing them from separate providers. Just as a Fractional T1 line only turns on a portion of a T1 Line for Internet access special equipment allows some of the T1 channels to be allocated for telephone lines while others are used for data transmission and Internet access. For example a Full Integrated T1 line could be divided in half using special equipment providing 12 high quality telephone lines and using the other 12 channels for 768k of bandwidth. Fractional Integrated T1 lines are also available but most companies have minimum levels such as 4 phone lines and 512k of Internet access which only uses 12 channels combined. Many offers even include "blocks" of free long distance usually based on the number of telephone lines being installed. A typical offer might include 6 phone lines(6 channels). 512k (8 channels) and 600 minutes of free LD each month (100 per telephone line). This entire circuit could have a total cost as low as $400 to $500 per month which is a tremendous "all inclusive" bargain for small businesses. This is a perfect total solution for literally thousands if not millions of small companies across the nation. One thing to keep in mind is that not all providers can offer Integrated T1 Lines so the ones that do typically focus a great deal of their sales efforts on this service. Voice Over IP is considered to be the next big thing in the telecommunications industry. It has already begun the powerful growth that has been expected for many years by experts and early adopters. Although VoIP services can and will be used across all types of high bandwidth connections the business class services are primarily being offered on T1 lines. This is extremely important in the world of bandwidth and telecommunications because it again validates the T1 line as the most cost efficient delivery method of the most reliable bandwidth. In other words a company cannot afford to trust a volatile Internet connection like DSL or Cable to ry VOIP because they risk losing 100% of their communication capabilities. Voice over IP is revolutionizing telecommunications because it is cheaper for the user and the infrastructure requirements are better for the providers. Rather than requiring a telephone line and all of the switching on the back end to complete a call. VoIP uses equipment to break down a telephone call into packets of data then sends those packets across the internet to be decoded where the receiver answers the call. This dramatically reduces the bandwidth that is necessary to complete a call because it eliminates dead times when no one is speaking into the receiver. Since the calls also bypass the normal telephone switching network they also escape FCC charges (for now). Every major Provider and most small providers are starting to offer residential and business class VoIP services. If you're in the market for a business VoIP solution try the free consulting services of Business-VoIP-Solution com. Point to point T1 lines do not provide T1 Internet access or telephone lines but act as a transport for either or both. A point to point T1 often referred to as a "P2P" provides a very secure and reliable connection usually from a corporate office to any number of satellite offices. Although a P2P does not actually "provide" Internet access or phone lines corporations use P2P T1s to share these services. For example a companys home office in Los Angeles might have hundreds of telephone lines and huge Internet access pipes installed at one location to get the best available rates. This company can use a P2P T1 to transmit any combination of telephone lines. Internet access and data between offices to share software systems and provide in-office dialing from locations across the country! The variables are endless because there are no restrictions on how a point to point T1 can be used assuming you have the right equipment and a source at one end of the P2P. This can be a great way to save money because a satellite or branch office might have to pay huge prices to have telephone and bandwidth services installed directly whereas the home office can get better rates because of bulk buying and location. Although it can sometimes be used to save money a P2P network is usually not very cost efficient compared to other options. Frame Relay and VPN (Virtual Private Network) are other options to consider depending on a company's needs and business applications. The primary advantage of a P2P line is that it is truly private making it top choice for those demanding a circuit with a dedicated connection to only their business therefore offering the highest security available. There is no question that the same type of T1 Line that was being used back in 1984 by the US Government and world leading technology companies like IBM is still the best source of reliable bandwidth for all sizes of companies today. Despite the competition of newer technologies price reductions on T1s plus the fact that these circuits are so trustworthy have allowed the number of T1 Lines being used in the United States to continue to grow at a rate of 15% per year even in recent years. Since there are so many uses for the T1 Line including the explosion of new technologies like VoIP these circuits are poised to remain a key ingredient to the success of businesses who rely on Internet. Telecommunications and Data Connectivity for years to come.

A typical offer might include 6 phone lines(6 channels). 512k (8 channels) and 600 minutes of free LD each month (100 per telephone line). This entire circuit could have a total cost as low as $400 to $500 per month which is a tremendous "all inclusive" bargain for small businesses. This is a perfect total solution for literally thousands if not millions of small companies across the nation. One thing to keep in mind is that not all providers can offer Integrated T1 Lines so the ones that do typically focus a great deal of their sales efforts on this service. Voice Over IP is considered to be the next big thing in the telecommunications industry. It has already begun the powerful growth that has been expected for many years by experts and early adopters. Although VoIP services can and will be used across all types of high bandwidth connections the business class services are primarily being offered on T1 lines. This is extremely important in the world of bandwidth and telecommunications because it again validates the T1 line as the most cost efficient delivery method of the most reliable bandwidth. In other words a company cannot afford to trust a volatile Internet connection like DSL or Cable to ry VOIP because they risk losing 100% of their communication capabilities. Voice over IP is revolutionizing telecommunications because it is cheaper for the user and the infrastructure requirements are better for the providers. Rather than requiring a telephone line and all of the switching on the back end to complete a call. VoIP uses equipment to break down a telephone call into packets of data then sends those packets across the internet to be decoded where the receiver answers the call. This dramatically reduces the bandwidth that is necessary to complete a call because it eliminates dead times when no one is speaking into the receiver. Since the calls also bypass the normal telephone switching network they also escape FCC charges (for now). Every major Provider and most small providers are starting to offer residential and business class VoIP services.

Point to point T1 lines do not provide T1 Internet access or telephone lines but act as a transport for either or both. A point to point T1 often referred to as a "P2P" provides a very secure and reliable connection usually from a corporate office to any number of satellite offices. Although a P2P does not actually "provide" Internet access or phone lines corporations use P2P T1s to share these services. For example a companys home office in Los Angeles might have hundreds of telephone lines and huge Internet access pipes installed at one location to get the best available rates. This company can use a P2P T1 to transmit any combination of telephone lines. Internet access and data between offices to share software systems and provide in-office dialing from locations across the country! The variables are endless because there are no restrictions on how a point to point T1 can be used assuming you have the right equipment and a source at one end of the P2P. This can be a great way to save money because a satellite or branch office might have to pay huge prices to have telephone and bandwidth services installed directly whereas the home office can get better rates because of bulk buying and location. Although it can sometimes be used to save money a P2P network is usually not very cost efficient compared to other options. Frame Relay and VPN (Virtual Private Network) are other options to consider depending on a company's needs and business applications. The primary advantage of a P2P line is that it is truly private making it top choice for those demanding a circuit with a dedicated connection to only their business therefore offering the highest security available. There is no question that the same type of T1 Line that was being used back in 1984 by the US Government and world leading technology companies like IBM is still the best source of reliable bandwidth for all sizes of companies today. Despite the competition of newer technologies price reductions on T1s plus the fact that these circuits are so trustworthy have allowed the number of T1 Lines being used in the United States to continue to grow at a rate of 15% per year even in recent years. Since there are so many uses for the T1 Line including the explosion of new technologies like VoIP these circuits are poised to remain a key ingredient to the success of businesses who rely on Internet. Telecommunications and Data Connectivity for years to come.

Your LAN is running smoothly but now you need to connect to the outside world for dedicated Internet service point to point data transfer or VoIP call termination. A T1 line seems like a cost effective solution but your network protocol is Ethernet not T1 data. How do you make the conversion?Relax. Pick the right T1 line carrier and they'll take care of it for you. Yes there was a time when you had to broach with bring Service Units. Data function Units router setups and interfacing everything together. The new way is to let the service provider handle all these issues with a managed router. A T1 router is a aim 3 device specifically designed to work with T1 lines. The T1 standard is very specific with regards to line coding framing signal levels impedances and synchronization. Ethernet is equally specific with regard to packet organization. The CSU / DSU portion of the T1 router accepts the T1 line communicate from the Smart Jack at the demarcation point and performs all the necessary functions to transfer and acquire data. The Ethernet interface gives you an RJ45 jack that connects to your LAN. The magic in-between makes sure that packets and frames get properly matched. Another advantage of managed routers is that they allow the T1 function provider to monitor the end WAN or Wide Area Network from their facilities through your router. That makes maintenance and troubleshooting easier and faster. It's likely your carrier will also set up automatic monitoring of your link so they can swing into action if something goes do by even after business hours. The latest option in WAN options is end to end Ethernet. The entire circuit between facilities runs IP protocol not TDM the protocol of T1 lines. Your connection can be a aim 3 router or level 2 switch depending on how the network is setup. In learn your field offices and main offices can be on the same LAN even though they are hundreds or thousands of miles apart rather than a few feet. This service is also called Carrier Ethernet. It is provisioned directly onto an IP-based fiber optic carrier so there are no awkward protocol conversions involved. It's also the most cost-effective WAN bandwidth you can get especially for 10 Mbps. 100 Mbps and Gigabit Ethernet connections. You'll need to be in or come a building that is lit for fiber optic Carrier Ethernet. Such a facility might be closer than you think. . Not very come an Ethernet carrier point of presence? One common solution is to move your servers.

Bandwidth expansion is a sign of good business. As an Internet service provider or content provider you see that once generous T1 call getting beat to the check. Now what? You wince a bit because revenues may not be accelerating at the same evaluate as bandwidth bespeak. Is there a way to ensure a solid dedicated connection to the Internet without going broke?Today you have more be competitive options than ever before. The standard grade path for ISPs and others with Internet backbone connections has been from T1 lie to T3 line or DS3 over fiber then OC3 SONET optical fiber. OC12 and on upward to OC48 bandwidth. You can still get all of these services at prices lower than ever before. But you now also undergo the options of Ethernet. Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet for your dedicated Internet connection. Let's act a look at what's currently available. The most basic professional grade Internet connection is the T1 line at 1.5 Mbps. Some providers of free WiFi hotspots such as restaurants may get by with business DSL or a Cable Modem connection since the service is being offered on an "as available" basis at no charge to the patron. For everybody else a T1 data lie configured for dedicated Internet service is the opening back. If you alter up your T1 bandwidth an incremental upgrade is to bond-in a back up T1 to manifold the bandwidth. This process can be continued for 3x. 4x. 5x and change surface 6x the original bandwidth. If you undergo a WISP (Wireless Internet Service Provider) lift in a rural area. T1 service over copper lines might be your only reasonable option. In metropolitan areas you have a choice of staying with copper or moving up to fiber optic function. T3 Internet runs at 45 Mbps and was originally designed for a coaxial telecommunicate physical forge. Today the same service is DS3 running on SONET metro fiber. T1 bonded T1. T3 and SONET fiber optic services are all based on TDM or measure Division Multiplexing. A protocol conversion is used to displace IP packets on TDM trunk lines. The last mile connection or local loop is almost always provided by the Incumbent Local Phone Company regardless of who supplies your Internet service port. The native Ethernet connection is something fairly new. It is has come about primarily from competitive carriers with their own nationwide networks based on IP and not TDM enjoin peering connections to the Internet and local points of presence in metropolitan areas. XO communications is an example of a carrier that "lights" buildings for Ethernet fiber optic service in metro areas bypassing the local telecommunicate companies completely in your area. If you can get Ethernet the cost savings can be substantial. A Fast Ethernet connection at 100 Mbps an easily be half the cost of a DS3 connection at 45 Mbps. The savings gets change surface better when you compare OC3. OC12 or OC48 to Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet. What if you really need or want the be savings of Ethernet but are nowhere come a carrier Point of Presence? believe moving your equipment to "carrier hotel" or colocation facility. There you'll sight multiple carriers offering a wide variety of standard and non-standard bandwidths at highly competitive prices. The construction costs are nil or minimal since you are in the same facility as the carrier's POP. How much bandwidth can you get for the money? The answer depends on where you are located where you might be willing to collocate and how much of a bandwidth level and contract length you are willing to commit to. Don't pay a lot of time trying to run drink these deals yourself. Let our team of and give you with a suite of competitive options.
