I have North Central Telephone Cooperative, parent company is blue.net (did not find North Central Telephone Cooperative on dslreports.com I've had dsl at least for 2 years now from North Central Telephone Cooperative, i used to be able to download speeds at 30kb-60kb, higher which i thought i was good. Now i'm getting 25kb and less speeds, its getting horrible right now, i've never had such a bad connection. I used to be able to download two/three things at once, and surf the web at the same time, now i am not. I can't download and still be able to surf the web anymore. All my friends are getting the same thing, what happened to all the good speeds we used to get? Nctc's dsl is downgrading all the time.
Site for North Central Telephone Cooperative is »www.nctc.com

The problem here is not Bluegrass, it's the local phone company. Brandenburg Telephone company, is a mom and pop operation that owns the area, they sell the lines to Bluegrass at an unbelievable cost. Bluegrass, does manage to under sell their dial up connection at $20 for unlimited access as apposed to Brandenburgs $20 for 150 hours or 29.95 for 300 hours. The problem is Brandenburg owns the lines and during peak hours switch bluegrass over to the reserve lines (overflow lines) which are in poor shape and are not suitable for internet. On the DSL side of the house they charge $75 dollars for DSL per month, the service in it self is good, but the price is outrageous, they also learned a lesson in their first dealing with Bluegrass and jacked up the cost to them to a point where Bluegrass has to charge $5 more than them, so the'll keep the business. Some people still go with Bluegrass to spite Brandenburg, bottom line, if your in the Radcliff area, you are Screwed until the local cable company gets broadband online here. I wish someone would bring in Microwave access!!
