    Default Your Computer Problems

    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

    Time Warner, the whole Road Runner cable. Like a 1 megabit connection, no lie. Too bad every server throttles it down to about 300kb/s.

    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
    Problems playing downloaded videos? Try CCCP

    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 have to use AOL. Unfortunately, my modem is defective and constantly disconnects. Not to mention these parental control things.
