said by Xdriver : Are they doing something to the network, or should I bother calling SBC-CS? Thanks.
Most likely the network is impaired somehow or another. It has been an ongoing problem for weeks, however the worst of it seems to be over (many people were seeing speeds of less than 100mS). Try a speed test to the SBC site, that will give you some idea of if it is a local vs. a Net problem, also the Line Quality test can help there as well.
I would agree that a call to the general tech support would most likely land you with an unnecessary cap. You could IM a note to one of the techs to look at your line, ut chances are there is little they can do for it unless you have developed a line problem. |
