I started out with APK many years ago when it was nothing more than a BBS. I had a shell account with Zbig.
Expedient took over the company and the service went downhill from there. I could not view atom films aat DSL speeds as my connection was slow, every couple of days the DNS servers went down dso I could not find the websites I wanted. Outlook could not send or receive my e-mail because the mailservers would be down.
I was paying $61.95 for limited access. They charged me $5 a month to scan my e-mails for virus. When I would call customer service I would be put on hold for long periods of time and then they would not know how to fix the proiblem. Basically this ISP NOW SUCKS BIG TIME!!!!

The service in Medina County has been going down hill for the last 3 months. It is
now to the point that dial up is faster most of the time. I have spoke to Tech. support and they know about problem but say it's Version that won't install the
new lines they ordered. I asked why would you keep selling service when you know
you can't support the volume? They won't tell me when the service will be restored to an acceptable level. I told them I want credit for service until it is restored and they switch me to the sales department which will not return calls. I pay for 768/128 and as of today it was 64/70.

They had verizon install one new gateway for a short time yesterday I got 466kbps download speed now it's going down hill again. I was told this will be fixed by mid October. I hope they are not still selling service in Medina Co. until this is fixed.
Your download speed : 184545 bps, or 184 kbps.
Browsers would show : about a 22.5 k/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 127795 bps, or 127 kbps.

Your download speed : 119974 bps, or 119 kbps.
Browsers would show : about a 14.6 k/sec transfer rate.
Your upload speed : 107238 bps, or 107 kbps.
Your connection hardly qualified as broadband, at least in that test
As you can see things have not improved as promised. Cable is now available
thru Armstrong I'm signing up today.
