YESSSSSS!!! I got reconnected yesterday (30th) after being down a month. With NP i was getting a solid 784/784 with nary a problem, especially since i was only suppose to get 416/416. Since i have been back up my top speed has been 168/90. I called Telocity and the Tech said it looks like there is interference on my line somewhere. He was observing my packet loss while i was surfing. I thought maybe when i installed a new jack for my new gateway i might have had a wire touching somewhere but i plugged the modem into a different jack and was still getting the same speeds. I just did a speed test and now it is around 690/118, on three different test. I don't know if this is a fluke or somebody actually did something. I am going to call Telocity and see if they have an update. But honestly as long as i don't have to listen to the modem screech, and the web pages are loading faster than dial-up even at around 150kbs, it is still a lot better. |
