    its not the 89 I am pissed about its the blatent lie about the 1000 mbps, I mean its still good , just dont like getting lied to

    They throttle the Iphone here, rang them up to find out why , Oh its your phone

    Muggins here thought it was , reinstalled everything , nice girl down shop helped.

    no difference

    then after a week of speed checks I noticed a pattern, 4pm till 10 the speed dropped ... Sooo back on the phone with evidence, and ,,,, yes we throttle ( he didnt exactly say it , but you get the point )

    If the wheel is black just tell me , dont tell me its white but sometimes may not be


    Another on my list to shoot come the revolution

    Wow. 10 hours to upload a 300MB file. That's like 65kbps. Fantastic! That's almost double dial-up upload speed!
    If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!

    It appears there are no decent options for symmetrical broadband that do not involve the use of wireless.

    This is ridiculous .
    I uploaded a 500mb video to Youtube and it only took a couple of minutes... (10 at the most) I not wireless...
