Finally, what do people think of selling a 1G service with 1G backhaul

Depends what weasel words you put in your SLA, I suppose. Can they
claim SLA credits for it being down/unusable if they're only getting 1% of
the throughput they paid for? And are they a captive audience or not?
No SLA, residential customers.
1% is quite unlikely to happen, it would require every customer in a
very large deployment to be trying to download >1mbit/sec at the same time.
Peak average usage for most UK broadband installations seem to be
between 20 and 100Kb/sec. I'm working on the basis of 300Kb/sec because
our access speeds are much higher.
(this would suggest 300Mbit/sec peak for 1000 users, but my question is
whether we'll see that level of aggregation at 1000 * 100Mb on 1GE, or
whether it's going to be very 'peaky', and we'll only see that
smoothness when we aggregate 10-15 buildings onto 10GE)
What do you do on Patch Tuesday?
Update windows.
