@sonic.net | Actual speed of ADSL2+ I'm curious about what the actual speed you are getting. I've read the service agreement and they don't guarantee anything at all, which is tough for a year contract. | |

| Re: Actual speed of ADSL2+ I'm getting 12.78mbs/863kbs right now. I haven't got a chance to tweak it or anythings but it seem to be working well.
Regarding the one year commitment it not too bad, most the other dsl isps want you to give at least a year commitment too.
Plus there is that 21 day thing , I forget what the exact details was but basically you have 21 days after the service is install to try it out and see if it meet your standard. You should call lightning bolt to find out the details to be sure. | |

Oakland, CA | Re: Actual speed of ADSL2+ Thats pretty sweet. Are those numbers taking the TCP overhead into account or are they the raw download/upload speeds? Because if its the former, then you're getting pretty much all you were posted to get, which is, well, sweet. | |

| Sept 18, 2007 conection down Well it's been slightly less than 2 months being with Lightning bolt. Today, around 3-4pm I lost my connection; The support web site said "We are currently experiencing a service interruption due to equipment failure at the NYCQNYNW central office in ELMHURST, NY" That was in normal type and in big green bold letters "All Other Systems are reporting 100% Health" Usually you just see the big bold green letters saying 100% good and say cool but the regular type says this is down, so does the big green bold thing mean much? It seems a bit misleading.
It's now 7:40pm, I'm hoping to LBDSL fixes whatever is wrong soon or else I'll need to switch over to my backup isp which is a pain. I'll update the forum when my lightning bolt connection comes back up. | |

| Re: Sept 18, 2007 conection down When you look at our network health page (»lbtech.com/support/dsl/networkhealth.html) you will see any current issues listed first. If there are no current issues you will see "All Systems are reporting 100% Health" If there are current network issues listed, then below them you will see "All Other Systems are reporting 100% Health" meaning all systems other then what is listed above are working correctly.
