    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..
    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?

    I'm only 45 min south of Nashua but no Fios yet

    Quite envious, though I do have a good cable line, still that's not fiber...

    Enjoy MM!

    I am very very anxious guy.You are making me perspire like a sonuva.

    Being serious: sig said he had a ton of work pending. Wouldnt it be prudent to wait?? I dont want to stress a guy that has been doing great things to community and this time to me. My aim is to push it up to 5 ( will wipe aids, cancer or whatever you send me :P)

    Not to resurrect dead threads but since this is about Verizon Fios, I've got a little bit of good news myself 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

    It would be hella nice He also offered 25/15 which is a tad bit better over my current 20/5 but I'm looking at the returns I'll get price-wise from the 50/30 versus the 25/15

    Yes, yes and YES!!! 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!!

    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

    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.
