Re: Motorolla Canopy problem, or something else?
Well for 5 days now the problem has been none stop. I've traced the latency to 64.217.184.197 which is a point in a larger city. My thinking is, my isp's pipe is indeed too small and the connection from it to a larger pipe is getting bogged down.
I've only managed to get 10k downloads max, with 2-3kb down being average, and latency is from 300ms-1200ms with lots of request timed out's. So my new question is, what do you guys recommend me telling my isp? I'm not a lawyer, nor have i read up on any cases related to 'paid services' but at $60 a month for 512kb and a 700 installation fee upfront, I'm thinking the least they owe me is half that bandwidth.
If this was a cable tv provider, and the contract stated 50 channels, and i only got 3, something would have to be done.
I hope my post hasn't fell too far behind for anyone to post, any recommendations will be greatly appreciated. |
