Yeah, as most of you observant people noticed, i've dissapeared for a few days. Thats because the internet is down. So who do you get your internet from? Verison is my company now, and they arent very productive. Also, whats the longest youve ever been without a computer- not counting the time since you were born to when you first saw a computer. Who is your internet provider? do you like them? whats the biggest problem theyve ever given you? discuss :D
I smell a "I'm back" thread *sniff, sniff*
Just kidding, to answer your question...I have no idea...
My internet server is AOL, they suck really. I am always getting problems for it, but its the internet so it will do. I havent gone longer than a few months without the internet since I've had it.
Oh yeah. like i'd make an "i'm back thread" :sweatdropQuote:

AOL... I demand no one gets AOL it really sucks. it sucks so much it does in fact blow. My modem broke and it took them 5 weeks to send us a new one. :mad2:
Verizon ADSL
I'm with Bigfoot (or Lexicon) in Australia on a 512kB/sec connection.
I use Demon, and they're pretty darn good on the whole. They're more expensive than the average UK ISP, but I don't ever remember downtime on ADSL unless it was problems with one of the PCs at my end, IP is nice and static, they provide good newsgroup access including alt.binaries.*, and data transfer is uncapped. I guess the only gripe is lack of 1 mbit for home connections at the moment :p
Turning my PC back on takes forever to get the PC speed going at a good speed.
Biltmore Communications, a local company in Atlanta. Supposedly we have a T3 line for our apartment complex, although it gets bogged down if ALL the people here get on at once. It usually doesn't suck.
I use the University of Toronto network, which is always slow and afrequently disconects us. :(
Fiber bitches! I bought a *big barage of love* load and wired it up my self. I get insanely fast downloads!!!!

I have to use AOL. Unfortunately, my modem is defective and constantly disconnects. Not to mention these parental control things.
SAPO ADSL, a didn't have Internet for a few weeks and I was getting upset but they fix it and now it is okay...
