    Default Bipolar Internet

    My internet is bipolar. It can't decide if it's up or down. It sucks. I got up today and I was like "omg I can't check my emailz, ghey."

    Is your internet pretty steady? I have 3MB down Charter cable, but it hasn't been very fancy since we got it. I am sad.

    I have a 3mb 'Always On' NTL Cable connection & it's pretty reliable. I know others with BT Cable (namely my sister), a Log-Off Cable & she has nothing but problems.
    It could actually be a line fault, which needs engineers calling out. That's what, after a year of complaints, my sister had to get done, since then, no problems.

    I have DSL... it is MORE THAN sufficient for all my needs. Reliable, fast, and I have this habit of just turning off the box, if I think I'm being compromised. The best hacker in the world can't turn on the power.

    I have cable internet of the future, it matches my moods. When I'm sad it's slow, when I'm happy it's fast, when I'm sick it downloads more viruses than usual.

    I've had more issues with less than a week of DSL than five years of dial up with two different providers ;P

    Yesterday was weird. It could get on IRC and loaded precisely two webpages.

    Then the webpagage died and the IM services never connected at all, but IRC was still on:P

    Then we called tech support and they had us turn it off and after that I had to plug the dialup modem in-_-;;

    (at this rate it's good that it won't expire for another month)

    SHUT UP NEEL. ;_;

    I'm on dial up. I just changed providers today, and things seem to be going on. Go me!

    It wouldn't let me check my e-mail today. I told my connection that I didn't love it, and it decided to run off crying.

    The internet for me is pretty good for the most part. At home, I'm on a decent connection that downloads stuff as fast as I need it for the most part and it's very rarely suffering downtime for longer than a few minutes at most, and now that my modem has been replaced recently, downtime has become nigh on non-existant. Yahoo! Mail is also very rarely down, so I don't have many problems at all.
    Bow before the mighty Javoo!
