said by DAOWAce:They were one of the fastest ISPs in the US back in the past..
But they also capped your service if you so much used your provided upload for more than 5 minutes.
Eventually that stopped, but their speed edge also waned as well. Now other providers offer faster speeds, lower latency and high reliability; at least as far as my area is concerned.
I'd jump over to FiOS if I could, but they haven't wired down my street despite being near here for over 3 years. Really unfortunate.
The upload capping is actually why I left OOL in 2006. I am on FiOS now and my only gripe is the netflix issues sadly.
