A new experiment done by scientists at Lucent Technologies was able to produce amazing Internet speeds. Although normal speeds now could reach 10GHz, most internet users do not see a quarter of that. Scientists say that in about five years they could reach very fast speeds, up to 145GHz. Although this is sure to come with a hefty price tag.

"What we have done here specifically is to select the set of polymers with the right properties that can function at very fast speeds. Basically, we are cramming a lot more electrical data onto an optical light wave in one second."
