Title: Recently changed my Internet plan THANK FUCKING GGG.
Post by: Juan_Ambriz on April 12, 2012, 03:37:24 AM
 After having the plan of 1.5 mbps my entire life, I called my provider and bitched at them because AT&T doesn't have a 1.5 Plan... Our Internet was HORRIBLE so bad that my schools Internet was better lol...
Yesterday I switched to 3.0mbps, and I'm SUPER HAPPY. Today 1080 videos load in like 10 seconds as apposed to never loading.
I know some of you have bigger, greater plans. But I have never had faster than 3 in My life lol.

Do you guys have any Service provider stories? Like bitchinG at them lol

I called Telstra customer a few years ago to complain about their customer service. They didn't pick up.

A long time ago I wanted to create a Minecraft server that didn't require Hamachi. After spending a couple days trying to figure it out, I called my ISP to find out what my static IP (or something IP, I can't remember what it was). Turns out, Time Warner Cable doesn't have that for their clients. I was pretty pissed that day because I had spent so long getting it up

Timewarner gives "dynamic" IPs that never changes, so may as well be static. Also, Ipchicken.com. :\

3-6Mbps is pretty standard for the Argentinian medium/medium-upper class.

I got upgraded from 12 mbps line up to 24 mbps just for complaining to AT&T why there service sucks balls sometimes.

Try it. That's how I get discounts on all my things

Our Internet was HORRIBLE so bad that my schools Internet was better lol...

My school has better internet speeds than all of the local ISPs in my town. I think the internet speeds are somewhere in the ball park of 20MB/s to 30MB/s down/up depending on the day. And yes, Megabytes.

I'll try to get a speedtest.net result. :p

They generally use Fiber at this point.

Most schools will have an OC-1 or OC-3 line. (OC=Optical Carrier)

You can buy one too!!! OC-1 lines will generally be in the $10,000-$20,000 a month range + setup fees. Granted these were prices from a few years ago but close enough.
OC-3 will be ~$50,000 a month

Yeah, I've downloaded files at 20mb/s at my school before. Our graphics teacher rakes in millions of dollars of scholarships for his students, so our school can have nice things sometimes.

We just recently moved, and a long with the move we got a different internet plan. Our internet before was simply AWFUL, some days it would work fine, others it wouldn't work at all. Fucking sucked. With out new plan though, I haven't had any problems at all, it's wonderful.

May not be as amazing as some, but it is a hell of a lot better then before.
