Just moved to an apartment building in the East Campus neighborhood in Columbia, MO, and we get MCHSI included in our rent. That node is so oversold and filled with college students running their damned file sharing software, that it's worse than dialup. I have a dialup account with Socketnet, just in case, and most of the time the dialup is better. 1000ms pings and 30k/s is unaccaptable. When you call support, all you get is "we are working on it."
I hate this when it's free, I sure as hell wouldn't pay for it, at least around here.
Update: Not much has changed. Speed is better, but latency is still bad at night. I'm definately not a gamer, but VOIP performance suffers pretty bad.
