Re: Give Me Quality Broadband or Give Me Death

I currently have Adelphia "power link" and over the past few days have seen my speeds cut by over 60%. Just last week I was at 52 to 54 times the speed of 56k now I'm at 13 to 23. So as I was browsing the site I read this article and the posts. Then I went to Adelphia's site and went to check the network status. In about 75% of the states listed there are status tickets for slow connection and of course no connection. I hope something good comes of this lawsuit for everyone that is paying for this so called service.

ouch. i'm not quite there yet, but my connection is certainly getting there. i used to have one of the first cable connections in the neighborhood... and i was getting unbelievable speeds... downstream at least. 3.8m, 4.5m... it was all good... but now i have the absolute lowest in colorado. partly because i have an ignorant little kid with a crappy computer (FULL of spyware and all kinds of aweful stuff) that eats up 98 percent of my bandwidth... i was at 16/2 when his computer was on... but after i banned his box from my network, i still only get 1300/120 on a good day. actually i think that's the highest it's been in months.

i'm not paying for a damn ISDN here. give me real speed, and damnit, give me some real upstream. it's too bad i'm like 7 miles away from USWest's CO (or Qwest i guess.) and DSL of any considerable speed is over 150 bucks... or i;d switch in a heartbeat.
