[Troubles] Re: I'm about to lose it

Bodybagger- Larissa just sent you (and your brother) some really good news in the Direct Forum. Before you ask . . .yes it is confirmed!

So why hide good news in a private forum? Maybe I should ask about my area again since I never got an answer, yet I can see new fiber in the ground (when it was installed) and many new cabinets on the road side, including where my copper ends currently giving me my SDSL (slow DSL).

Why not share it? Part of the secret society of Windstream management?

Lol.. cmon man.. Well atleast the ETR dates are moving just a few weeks instead of 6+ months. =\

The way the tech described it was that the most utilized areas that had the worst problems were going to be completed first. I know that Cameron, SC is a much larger area (and where the money of this county lives) than our small area outside of Saint Matthews. I would've assumed that Cameron would've been the number 1 place to get up and running before anyone else around here. (I'm keeping a track on Cameron as well for people that do not post on forums)

When you guys say the engineer, are you referring to the local field engineer in charge of the project? I'm just hoping the information you guys are redirecting is coming from a legit source.

Piggie, they usually like to keep the news relating to certain people/areas relevant to the person/area that have the issue. Basically my ETR date was moved again. But only a few weeks compared to the normal 3-6 months away.

BTW there are only 2 techs that work the forum. Aaron just fills in when he has the time anymore and we thank him for that. And of course, my issues are irrelevant to anyone else outside of Saint Matthews, SC. They may be the same exact issues, over sold equipment and not enough backhaul, but each area is different.

I'm not sticking up for Windstream in any way, shape or form... but I will stick up for these techs in here. Just look at how much they have on their plates just in the forum alone.

Bodybagger- The new date that Larissa provided is pretty much set in stone to get you and your brother moved to the new equipment. That should eliminate your latency issues. Of course we can not promise that there wont be some bugs with the new equipment while people are getting moved to it after you. But Larissa and I both checked, and reconfirmed that you guys will get moved to the new equipment. I am very confident based on the info that we were given that Saint Mathews will not be over-utilized in the very near future.
Regarding working in the forums, Pat and Larissa both are in the Direct/Secure forums full time. I will be in the Public forums at least couple hours a day for the foreseeable future. Have a good New Year BodyBagger.

So I pushed it too far body bagger. Funny I was the first one called out on that but then I tend to push the edge on my posts.

Ok Merry christmas Arron, Bodybagger and all.

It's just after years of lies, refusing to fix problems when I worked at Orange Springs Restaurant & Grill and having to do an end run around CS to get it fixed. How am I supposed to feel?

Ok, I will start a new thread and ask what is my ETA.

Nah man I didn't call you out or anything. I was more explaining the situation. I work in IT as a help desk tech for the state and trust me, I know how this stuff gets. And believe me... I hate Windstream probably more than anyone can possibly imagine in this forum. lol.. I get highly pissed off a lot of times at this awful internet but I try my best not to bash these guys in here because I know how it is. By no means was I trying to call you out. I hope that this company gets everyone up and running how the shit should be ya know? No one should have to suffer through the problems we have experienced over the years.

And you haven't pushed the edge as much as some others have.. lol

I have worked help desk in IT but lucky I was dealing with a slightly more informed customer base. I worked in RF modems back in the 80's. I know how it gets. Lucky for me also, our owner didn't want us to lie or anything. His orders, if a customer becomes irate, let them rant a moment, then offer them a full refund upon returning the product. Sadly I think those type of owners are all gone.

I feel your pain man. I left Hughes.net for Windstream 1) for a job, 2) because Windstream came available to me.

Right now, my latency and download speed are not as good as hughesnet. The only drawbacks for satellite are the cap the the huge price. I hope the windstreamdirect people can help me or at least acknowledge it. Support tells me to reboot my modem etc everytime. Dont they know that I do that 10-20 times a day just to see if it will help and it doesnt.

in the evenings i like to play fps's to relieve stress. that is not an option with latency over 1000ms

you are not alone bodybagger

We tried to do some BGs in WoW just now.. the first one wasn't too bad at 300-400ms.. but just now we logged because we were over 1900ms. I gd hate Windstream so much.

Trying to play League of Legends here. Same boat. Canton, GA here.

WTF is Windstream doing? They have to know that this is unacceptable right?
