I probably should have named the title to : Shitty bandwidth. =/

 

Good luck..

 

what would my connection speed be considered

Slightly better than dial-up..

bullshit

i don't know much about computers but i know it's alot faster than dialup!

 

Good luck with that Ryan!

 

got it figured out.

Found out that while those geniuses changed my billing to the high speed, they forgot to actually change my actual service.

 

internet service in the complex sucks as a whole.

 

damn this is the dsl at my work

could this be partially due to a stone age computer??

As shorty said, options are limited. You either get shit on or pissed on, so take your pick.


I went with DSL because while cable can be fast..... getting cable in a 500-odd unit Apartment complex is probably the worst idea ever.

Shorty, did you go with Ygnition? What do your tests look like?


Im so happy that the FCC is challenging Apartment Complex Agreements like this.

Chances are if you have Grande (most of their customers are proxy from them signing a contract with the apt. complex), you probably don't even have a choice to get cable..

 

Jumping your thread here, but I have a question. I have decent speeds, but I get random disconnects all the time, have had every line from the pole to the computer replaced, it does it less now but I still noticed it 10-20 times a day if I am on the computer all day, any ideas?

Consider replacing your NIC card and check to see if your router has the latest firmware.

I had a intermittent problem with my Actiontec router and it was a firmware updated that fixed the problems. My problems were mostly regarding dropped IPsec packets for VPN tunneling.

And for those people who have Satellite DSL service, it is normal to have high latency. Other times it's just simple network congestion or a bottleneck on your side of the DSLAM.

yeah, we have Ygnition. I'm not sure what the tests look like but seat of the pants is "okay to shit" on the range. Once or twice a week the service is effectively "down" it's so slow. I'll post up a test this afternoon.

Have you cleaned out your cookies? are you behind a firewall? have you rebooted your modem? have you scanned for trojans or virus? try downloading adware or something similar too check for spam. I think i use webroot.


These are some things that can be causing high ping...
