Yeah, personal router bottleneck is a problem. Commercial Routers are also very expensive. But still guaranteed 60 for 40 bucks is awesome. At home I have to pay like 70 just to get 16.

eh our desktops are governed quite a bit for connection. On average I hit around 19 down and 11 up with a semi full house here, which is around 400 PCs and 300 voip connections running off the connection.
today is pretty sorry due to our voice track system. It records all calls(8,000+ a day) then sends it to the storage server. Of course I guess I should pick a closer server to

To save bandwidth I have now implemented a new feature, Image Resizing...resizes all covers uploaded to the correct size, and reduces the quality accordingly...for example I reuploaded the grand theft auto IV cover:
Old size: ~711kb
New size: ~17kb
Next thing to add is paging on the browse site, do not load all games at once later when they starting to stack up.

And dude, where do you work? And I forgot that Falken was from Sweden. But I think Jatt said that he had a 100Mbps line for his apartment, and that that was the cost. I don't remember though, it was so long ago.
Ye in sweden many appartments have fiber connection, giving up to 100mbps in both direction, for only about $40/month

Sweden also has snus, and that is arguably more important than fiber connections.
