Regarding internet speeds in the US

[dyresand]

Prepare your butts because internet is going to get a hell of a lot faster.
While people needlessly attack him and even calling this out as a bad thing it doesn't mean its bad at all. It help us the consumers and businesses because look at the clear monopoly with internet everywhere. Bright House yes it is a monopoly but its the most loved monopoly out there.

seriously fuck you wind stream no one likes you.

if you use speed test it gives you biased results here is the real result.


Note i took these tests today a minute after another my ISP screws with my internet download speed and upload. One day i have 25 down .10 up. They are clearly manipulating my connection.
In the mean time my butt is ready for faster internet when it gets here.

Ooh, is it competition time again

[dyresand]

Its not competition time its more or less ISPs are shitting bricks right now because of the monopolies they now are going to be completely ended so a fair and balanced compition so places like where i am at they have to allow other companies to give me internet and this pretty much in the US everyone is getting better internet.

I'd be fucking ecstatic if Comcast would deliver close to what they sold me on a half asses consistent basis.

Last night, during off-peak, I barely managed 3.5Mbps. I'm supposed to get 60, and they claim they're going to upgrade that to 100. That test result was for a test that never left Comcast's shitty network, so it's not an upstream problem.

Its comcast doing dirty deeds on their ends i noticed when i first gotten internet through embark it was good for the time being i won't say its bad they do stuff on the software end like comcast does
to fuck up your down and up stream on a constant basis knowing full well they do it and its not illegal now with that being said they cannot do that anymore once the competition they cannot fuck around
with consumers.
