ouch

now I'm at 13 to 23.
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.
