Extremely happy :D

I'd like to report to you all I'm currently hooked up with this service and am extremely happy with it. I get amazing speeds well over the advertised numbers (For me the advertised download is less than my upload).

I'm in the Bridgenorth area and it was a much better choice than, the not available to me, bell connection.

Hi Omega_Razer

Thats great to hear! Mind if I ask if you are on cable or wireless?

There's a couple of us from Nexicom that hang out here, so if you have any questions, let us know!

Wireless. It's the only thing I can get other than dial-up

Okay so I didn't have any problems at all till today when I got back home and the modem light on my router was flashing saying that it wasn't working...

I unplugged it and then plugged it back in. Nothing.
I unplugged it and plugged it back in an hour later. Nothing.
I unplugged it and my router and plugged them back in 20 minutes later. Nothing.
I've now been able to get online by plugging it directly to my PC. This has gotten my back on the internet but not much more. The pages I host from my PC cant be reached from outside my own PC now. Sending email through my webhost is extremely slow. I'm not getting anywhere near the speeds I was reaching last night.

Were there changes to the network at some point today? it seemed to be working perfect this morning before I left.

EDIT: This has since resolved itself. speeds are still a little bellow what they were but are much better than they were.

Just following up on this - speeds ok still? It sounds like you're on the Motorola 2.4Ghz wireless service and yes it is usually very quick (considering the options available of course)....

Any problems please drop us a line here - as bbuchanan mentioned there's a couple of us that frequent these forums...

Cheers!

The plug in my wall says Motorola so I'd imagine you're right :P and I haven't checked today but speeds seem back to normal.

Hi again, just wondering if there was any work being done lately or anything like that. the night before last my connection went down about 8:15pm (I was watching a movie and fell asleep) and it resolved itself by morning and I didn't notice it except my IRC client wasn't connected anymore. Last night though it went off about 8:30pm (same thing, was watching a movie and fell asleep, gotta stop doing that) and woke up at 5:30 this morning and the connection was still down. Ran through the same steps as before but got nowhere. It wasn't up at 8:30 when I left but was when I got home around 2:30... Any ideas?

I've used a little, but not a whole lot more, than this time last month so don't think it would be that...

Hi, we got it all sorted out. when I wrote that post it was only working for a little while... the black Motorolla power adapter thing was broken so I got a new one tonight and everything's working fine.
