Faster and cheaper internet access for progress
Philippines, October 17, 2015
There was this video at You Tube which investigated the internet speed connected to the speed test, and the speed being being monitored when not connected to the testing site. (There was another measurement site - MLabs which monitored the ping and the speed) The testing site reading gave a higher reading which was the advertised speed, but the actual usage showed a much slower speed. The investigator/author of the video theorized that the telco was white listing the connection when being tested. When the test site is the connection, the internet gives a correct speed, but when another URL is the site, the internet speed is the slower actual speed.
But what is new? Carriers/telcos are ignoring
Speed test results. What, are helpless against telco
giants?
Exempting Ookla speed test by T Mobile We must have FCC or NTC doing independent test sites on line?
Data caps by T Mobile
Is this not similar to the VW scam/scandal discovered for emission testing, by an independent group of investigator. Because of this, VW is facing sanctions and the CEO of VW had to resign, The VW stocks took a dive. As a result, VW is also investigated for wrong doing in Europe. How can this happen to a venerable brand like VW with over $400 billion of car sales annually?
Mr John German who discovered the VW cars emission scandal of ICCT International Council of Clean Transportation (what a paradox, a man named German discovering a German origin scandal. The cars tested initially passed the emission tests. He found as in this case that the test of German cars in actual usage, were 20x the limit. They did more test, and their hypothesis is that there must have been an emission test defeat software, or language in the computer box or emission hardware. software.
