Re: Your internet connection
Don't tease me about the net connection. You can get nothing else when you live this far out, and it is not even my decision. I live with my parents.
If this is a bit harsh, well I'm a bit frustrated tonight so just take that into account.

Re: Your internet connection
Reminds me of the internal office gag we had at the ISP I work at, we do wireless 3G internet (up to 500kbit/s but with high latency) & last year launched a VoIP phone service, teething problems + ongoing network instability resulted in a cup & string labelled "VoIP MK II" going round the office for a while...A WET PIECE OF STRING!!
At home I have 2mb ADSL.
We recently switched from the natural monopoly provider to a wholesaler with higher data allowance at same price, got consistently 1.8mb in testing before but seem to be getting a generally lower & quite variable speed with the new ISP :(
Its probably due to ongoing shenanigans regarding the wholesaleing by said natural monopoly who doesn't really want to wholesale but is doing it to try to prevent government regulations & they are hopefully going to get this fixed by regulation sometime this year.
maybe those guys should be doing something more useful...
Re: Your internet connection
well i hope you have at lest ran tcpoptimizer " http://www.speedguide.net/files/TCPOptimizer.exe" on your 56k.
And i am not suprized by a harsh responce :)
Im prety sure i reacted much worse when i had 56k. and people comented on it.
Still I think the Wet piece of string could be a good upgrade choice
:) you know im J/K about the wet piece of string :)
would only give you about 1kb's better preformance than the 56k.
:D
Re: Your internet connection
My connection is being evil. For the past week my LINK light has been blinking, something that usually means I won't be able to go online, but now it just means I get to travel slowly on the internet...slowly.

Yeah I know you're joking, and that reply seemed harsher last night.... Ah well once I'm out of the house I'll have a much better connection.Originally Posted by Just A Girl
