Re: New Telocity/PacBell slower. Can anything be done?

With the Pacbell line I'm getting about 500 up / 80 down.. and it was just so bad! At times when my phone rang the line when down, and I got sick of Telocity's waiting, their lies etc,. What I done is, switched to Roadrunner.. I'm getting about 1.8 Mbs down/600 kbps up.. and during peak time I'm dropping to 900kbps-1.1 Mbs- down/250-300 kbs up.. There isn't really you can do about it.. I switched to cable and I'm fariley happy it took about 2 days for me to be and running!! It's a whole lot better then Telocity/Pacbell.. Often times if there problem on the DSL line it's much harder to figure compared to Cable. So if you want to keep DSL, I guess you might have to live with it or switch another broadband carrier. BTW: Telocity might intrest you in DirectTV which I think it isn't really worth it..
