Re: Population
dcawrey,

Basic math of path-dependency problems in throughput: nothing actually speeds up till you fix the last bottleneck. Till then, all that happens when you remove a bottleneck is that the lines get longer downstream of where it used to be. With a newer faster router (or an ethernet connection) the packets are whizzing right through the place where they used to pile up -- and arriving all the faster at somewhere downstream, perhaps in the network itself, where they again pile up.

Re: Population
A lot of people have this problem with bottlenecks. Even I went to a Comcast office to figure out why my speeds weren't as advertised. This did result in me buying a new wireless router - yet that doesn't mean hardwired ethernet isn't the most ideal way to get the most throughput.

Bottlenecks
Orange has some things to do for the bottlenecks like multiple routers access points etc. but if they do some of those things I think it will be better for them.

Traffic Bottlenecks are shifting
As i was reading this article about the mbit/s and the gbit/s i was thinking to myself how come france has 500 mbit/s and in 2018 it will go up to 1 gbit/s. I believe it has something to do with the populationin france. I was also reading that slovakia must have a greater population if it is already at 1 gbit/s. I also think it will be better if france goes up to 1 gbit/s. That is what i think is best.

Population
The article mentions that the more devices that are connected to the network the slower it gets which makes me think, "bigger families slower connection".  I am wondering if the population of the area has any effect on speeds.  Is it easier for Orange to roll out 500mbit's in France because of the population of the country?
