Disproving The Concept Of The Bandwidth Hog – If the Legendary Beast is Real, Surely Data Will Prove It…

20 Dec 2009
Earlier this month an analyst for the Yankee Group and one of the primary developer’s of Amsterdam’s fiber to the home (and houseboat) network argued that the bandwidth hog didn’t exist, and was instead simply a concept used to disguise poorly designed networks and justify anti-consumer behavior.
To prove their point, they offered to analyze anonymous data from any ISP willing to volunteer – as long as the ISP offered data that adhered to a specific dataset. According to a new post over at the blog, several ISPs have offered to participate (though there’s no names so far). They’ve also set forth the exact dataset (warning: pdf link ) they’re looking for, if any additional ISPs wish to participate.
