Just ordered the 15mbit/2mbit line for $44.95 a month..
Any ideas on what that will do on MJ12?

Dang.. i really need high speed.. of some sort.

9-10 million a day with 5 systems....
So talk to me Oh MJ12 Guru: what can I do with 4 systems running here with that line..any hardware I need to maximise it and see you guys to #1?:D
House is all CAT6 wired on Netgear gigabit switches BUT 10/100 router. My understanding is that Verizon brings in a wireless DLink router when they install but I do like my old Netgear RT 314..

Do Vms help much when you have a big line but a limited number of systems ?

I have it on my area, too bad that i have no time to kill my roadrunner cable and switch to verizon fios. If I have the time for the installation, I would switch isp. Maybe in 3 months im going to get that 30mbit line.. its gonna do wonders for my home server. price aint that bad either.

Thats cool. :)

As far as i know running virtual machines is really helpfull for MJ-12. Get nnsteps XSOS and vmware server, then run it 20x - should be enough ;)

edit: Just continued running maj12 - the router isnt really usefull@wcg, 1 wu would need more than 20 H.

MM if you need i can send you a k6-500mhz or a celly 500mhz for an extra system so you can pass me in tremendous style
yes it would come with mobo and about 128mb or so of ram i think onbord video

but has been said in many ways

drool drool
crap now it looks like i peed my pants
and i should have my other computer up tomorrow night asus is sending the part finaly for my P5W DH Dlx.

MJ12 and Vm wont work.. You see, MJ12 uses WinRAR to archive.. The HD would be so taxed it wouldnt even be worth to run.. than their is severe fragmentation.

8-11 million a day Dave if you got 5 machines going. I know my single box is good for about 2 million a day and thats running with a 100% load on the BOINC client as well.. Expect an extra 500K a day if you arent crunching.

I'd invest in a good router (maybe a smoothwall) if you plan on having a lot of comps (though I heard smoothwall + Fios=:nono: ).

:banana::banana::banana::banana: YOU DAVE :(

i know, im just jealous and and bitter at the probable loss of my slice of pie :(

get a smoothwall if you know what's good for you ;)

also, on the archiving note, the builtin archiving is most probably better than running winRAR anyways, as LZMA is a superior algorithm in both speed and compression.

I WILL be bugging you for advice on using this to the max. At the moment just 2 machines running as the old DX700 is retired and the P4GD1 is sold and haven't gotten that dual socket opty up yet but thats my next priority.
Hey, this is the little kid in me. Just want to help you guys get to the top in MJ12.:D
Won't guarantee 100% every day but I'll do as much as I can with it.I do run a server so that will take some BW.
Talked with the guy doing the drop today. He tells me that people are seeing the full 15mbit down and between 1.7-2.0 mbit up.

Expensive to run for just that..a dual 350 watt PSU..That's why I pulled it from crunching. Was doing 450 a day in Rosy at the time..My elec this summer almost killed me..Wheb it gets to buying food or running a machine, the machine loses..Kept the 2 best ones running, sold the P4GD1 and retired the DX700..I still am looking for another Opty 266 for that dual socket Opty board..

I have it running loose like a wild dog on MJ12 to see what happenns today.

No video yet. The towns here think they can "hold up" Verizon like they did the cable companies, so Verizon went to the statehouse and made them an offer they couldn't refuse.
Let Verizon compete or the next time the tel lines would be updated would be in the next millenium..:D
I lucked out because my tel exchange is the same as Nashua( large city)
Where I live they roll up the streets at 9pm..I think there are 4 cops in the whole town and one arrest last year total.

Ive already downloaded over 2 gigs since i installed it recently. Hope we can provide a serious lesson to the Nordics :)

Is there any way to set M12 not to use such a big % of the connection when I am using the computer?

Yes, open it up..
Go to tools/options/connection and turn down the speed..

Not to resurrect dead threads but since this is about Verizon Fios, I've got a little bit of good news myself :rotf: I just got off the phone with a Fios sales rep and asked what my upgrade options were for my Fios account and he offered me a few pretty damn good deals since I've been a Verizon customer for 5 years; He gave me his personal work phone # and told me to call him up as soon as I'm ready to order. 50/30 was mentioned somewhere in the conversation :hehe:

ill be getting a 3 way :) not like that DAK... for 135. with a nice lil 50/30 :D

ive been passing helheim in Dimes, with about half of the pharm running... do yall think i can max that line out :) i think i have a total of 18 rigs i could hook up :shocked:

Yes, yes and YES!!! :D:D Even if you limited your MJ12 crawling to only half of your connection's potential it would still be a huge boost for our little team!! :up:

skycrane
12-11-2009, 09:07 AM
so do yall think 18 rigs would max that 50/30 line out??

every rig will be running BOINC, Dimes, and MJ12


im just trying to figure this out... what would be better? 10 rigs on a 5/3 line, 5 rigs on a 25/15 line, or 1 rig on a 50/30?

18 rigs will most likely max it out....there are some MJ12 users who have access to 100mbit lines and they come close to maxing out a 100mb line on 8-15 rigs. The faster your connection, the more URLS("points") you will crawl. If you have 10 rigs on a 20mb line and 10 rigs on a 50mb line, the 50mb line will always outdo the 20mb line because of sheer bandwidth. About BOINC and MJ12, I would ask Dave because he has more experience with running crunching apps alongside MJ12 :up:

If you get a 50/30 line and stick 5 rigs on it you'll pretty much max the line or do 4 and leave 10mbit to dimes on a separate machine.
Boinc and MJ12 work fine together.
