Internet T1 Service:
An Internet T1 (also spelled Internet T-1) is a high-speed digitally transmitted connection to the Internet that transfers signals at 1.544 Mbps (1,544,000 bits per second) that can be divided into twenty-four 64 Kbps telephone lines or trunks.

With over 250 channels of sports, movies, news, weather, local, and national programs over 100% digital signaling, DIRECTV is the industry leader in the United States serving over 16 million customers with award-winning content, customer service and technical support.

You can I still install DIRECTV if I lived in a multi-tenant buildings such as condos, apartments, and etc. The first qualifying consideration is to make sure that you have a clear line of sight to the Southern sky. In a multi-tenant building, and if you are located on the lower floors, you may run into a problem where an object or a building might be block the line of sight to the DIRECTV satellite in the Souther sky. In most cases, you would want to consult with your landlord or property manager about installing a DIRECTV satellite dish/es the roof or other suitable locations in the building.

If your property manager or landlord do not allow placing the satellite dish/es on the roof, you may request if installing the DIRECTV dish/es on your balcony or patio, or other suitable location. Sometimes the installation of your DIRECTV system (dish/es and/or converter units) may require structural changes that might be restricted or limited by the lease. In these cases, to avoid delays and possible problems in installation of your DIRECTV system, we recommend that you obtain a written or verbal permission from your property management and/or the landlord. You can also review your lease agreement to confirm permission before scheduling installation with DIRECTV and you can use the DIRECTV Installation Permissioin Form to document the permission. Any unreasonable restrictions enforeced by the property managers or landlords against installing satellite dishes that are a meter or less in size are prohibited by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).










VoIP:
Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service that sets up telephone calls over the Internet that are often billed at a flat rate and leverage subscribers existing broadband Internet connection. This saves money in that only one connection is needed for both voice (phone) and data (Internet) service.

You are not merely trading one system for another: VoIP represents the next generation of telephony and messaging: Control calls anytime from anywhere, view incoming calls, view missed calls, view calls you have placed, view your voice messages like emails (find the voice message you want to listen to first – listen to it through your phone, remotely, or on any sound-enabled computer, forward it to another user or an email box), click to call people in your contact directory, enjoy four-digit dialing to all of your locations, etc.

MPLS:
Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) is a data communication standard that creates separate data paths for specific sequences of packets. Each packet is identified by a label that is encapsulated into each packet. This eliminates the need for Internet Protocol (IP) routers to look up the IP address of the next router in the network in order to forward the packet and as a result, speeds up the network.

MPLS works across various data protocols such as the Internet Protocol (IP), Asynchronous Transport Mode (ATM), and frame relay. MPLS forwards most packets at layer 2 (switching) instead of at layer 3 (routing) level.

MPLS makes it easier to manage network for quality of service (QoS) because packets can be prioritized by business importance. For example, Voice over IP (VoIP) can be prioritized over email and web browsing packets.




High Speed Internet Access via Ethernet
High Speed Internet Access via Ethernet local access connects end user Ethernet local area networks (LANs) to the Internet over a metropolitan wide area networks (WANs) at speeds ranging from 1 megabit per second (Mbps) up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps). Internet access via Ethernet is an "always on", flat-rate service that offers faster, more cost effective Internet access than is available through traditional telecommunication access technologies such as T1 / T3 or E1 / E3 connections.

Internet access via Ethernet is becoming more and more popular to meet the growing demand for dynamic high bandwidth increases. For example, an increase from 10 to 100 Mbps can be accomplished by a High Speed Internet over Ethernet provider by simple changing the settings on already installed Ethernet switches. This scalability is cost effective for customers in that bandwidth can be increased or decreased quickly and easily, on demand, without the necessity of adding or changing datacom equipment as would be required with T1 / T3 or E1 / E3 local access lines.




Digital Subscriber Line Service (DSL):
Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) connects end users (subscribers) to the Internet via a plain old telephone service (POTS) line that uses an existing copper pair but has been sped up by a Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) located at the service provider centeral office (CO) to form a continuous digital high-speed data connection from the customer premise to the Internet.

Asymetric DSL (ADSL) allows more bandwidth to move data toward the end user (multimedia and text) than from the end user (mostly keystrokes and mouse behavior) to the Internet. The downstream receiving rate from the Internet usually varies from 1.5 to 9Mbps while the upstream sending rate usually varies from 16 to 640 Kbps. The main limitation on bandwidth speeds available is the distance from the customer premise to the local telephone company central office.




Wireless Internet Service:
High-speed satellite and microwave Internet connections for business can replace or back up traditional terrestrial landlines such as Internet T1s and Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) service. With wireless IInternet service in place as your primary or backup Internet connection, you can always count on low-latency connection to the Internet that means you will have an "always up", "never down", "zero outage" service that eliminates wasted time and increases productivity.

 DSL Speed Tests

Written by: Patrick Oborn - Dec 1, 2008


Ever wonder how fast your connection is? Are you really getting the 1.5Mbps that was promised to you? Me neither! The fact is, DSL is highly over subscribed. Oversubscription means that many people are pulling from the same resource. This results in slowdowns and it means you and I aren't getting the speed we signed up for. The best way to confirm this is through DSL Speed Test.

A DSL Speed Test is a great way to find out what kind of speed you're really getting. Is your connection really slow or is it just the fast that you're working with an old, slow, or over tasked computer? Simply find the DSL Speed Test by performing a search on Google and you'll quickly be on your way to finding out what you're really getting. You'll have to shut down your programs that are accessing the net and then perform the test which takes 30 seconds or so. It's very important to shut down programs accessing the net because these will impair the test and will cause your connection to appear slower than it actually is since some of it is being used.

When you find your speed is not what you signed up for you may want to try a few "tweaks". DSL Reports has a free downloads of DSL Tweaks that will allow you to modify your settings and some of your software to be faster on the net. What the DSL Speed Test will likely tell you, however is that you're not getting the speed you signed up for and unfortunately there's not much you can do about it. You can certainly call your provider and let them know you're not pleased but the reduction in speed can be caused by your distance from the CO or bad wiring in the area.
