ftth = fiber to the home. that's right, you get your own dedicated fiber connection in your home. it's available in regular houses (it's different from the fiber internet available in apartments, i believe). I tried calling a bunch of numbers to get it but they wouldn't help me because I was a foreigner.

here is one link: http://www.megapassline.co.kr/

here's a naver search with good links about ftth, but it's all in korean:

anyway, has anyone gotten this? i'm sick of my shitty shared cable line!

thanks Exclamation

yes. right now it's 100 megabits synchronous. this could go up to a gigabit or more later.

you can see some results from speed tests with it here:
