My mother eventually gave up because I kept complaining and the moment she switched services it went right back to being totally perfect with pings below 10ms.
Just flipped a switch.
We didn't even change modems.
We didn't change any hardware at all, come to think of it.
Just instantly, back to full speed.
I don't doubt it.
hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Comcast is just widely regarded as being terrible.
But it's almost like the free market system worked.
All the major American ISPs are terrible save for Google and Verizon fiber.
at least, for you.
Not.. really?
It kind of did.
I'd have to actually look at things like contracts etc.
You had shitty service with one company
and you switched to another.
Now
..No I didn't.
Again.
if only we could open the market
We went from comcast standard, which was like, 15 down 5 up.
To comcast basic.
Which was 5:1.
Oh.
Back to comcast standard. 15:5.
Again.
We didn't change anything.
We made a phone call.
How many devices sharing that connection?
The Internet went from beyond shittastic to normal within 5 minutes.
okay there must be an explanation lol
Nothing in the network changed.
I think at the time it was 4 devices in total.
Two desktops, two laptops.
mmhmm...
And a couple of other intermittent devices that went on and off as needed.
so, about 1.25 down, .25 up effectively.
Yeah.
Like I said.
That was basic math.
