Re: [IL] Southern IL HSI slow?

Waterloo, Iowa...I just called tech support and in my area they are upgrading due to too much traffic. And I ended up upgrading to a higher tier connect.

Mike,
Thanks alot for the update. Really appreciate it. Actually, it is much better today. So maybe they really did install two new provider lines and they are helping. If it goes bad again I will definitely call.

Here is my speed at 315 today. A big improvement compared to the last few days.

Went slow quickly after, so I am making a call.

Chatted online with them and they said "Ok. This may be more area-based. I will forward this up to the local area supervisor and see what is going on. We will keep you posted on what we find here in the next 1-2 business days."

Hopefully something gets done.
