Everything was good for about a week though the joy was premature. this is the third day already with sucky speed :/ damn i'm too lazy to move to another ISP

yo all Its 8PM right now, and i'm getting good speed without any hickups. about 180KB/S can it be that the problem is fixed? i hope so. will update tomorrow night.

ok , the Line Technician just was at my house. He checked both my line and the Telphone Box line in Basement. everything was good. he told me they have this problem (as i figured already) in Brooklyn and Queens. in Brooklyn they already seem to isolate the problem though. he said thats cuz they upgrading into Fiber Optic and having problems. they tried to boost the speed of users by giving them more bandwidth up to 3.MBits but it only slowed down even more (exetended the distance lines). he also said something about "interleaves" or something like that (some boosting thing that also caused problems.) long story short, the problem is with the Verizon Gateway. he said i should monitor my speed these 2 days and he will call me back monday morning to check on me. right now my speed is good (11:30 AM): :::..

damn, thats fast! i hope they wont forget about the little guys in NYC with lame speed these days :/

woot woot, first time i'm hearing about "NY Metro Plan". I pay for 1.5/ and about 15KB/s upload (how much in bits?) about 25$ (though i still have this damn super slow speed problem, "working on it" so they say). so i guess i'm going to mention this plan too going to milk them, for this past 3 weeks of low speed! muhahahah

hi guys after about 2 hours of waiting on the phone line (talking sometimes with really nub agents that cant tell the difference between bits and bytes) yada yada. i got to MCO technicians and he told me that he is going to open a new ticket at something called "Presidential Appeals" or something like that (sry i'm not originaly from US lol ), he said they r some top Network Technicians and will help me on monday. nothing to do but to wait now i guess the speed is all over the place 50-140KB/s, the pink is just horrible sometimes (approx. 1-3 Seconds). :::..

thanx for the welcome i'm sure it isnt a user problem. also the Technician at Verizon made a screen share and checked everything by himself. also i installed a fresh windows few days ago (the problem started in old windows). i'm keeping my system clean all the time (Ad-Aware, AV, Startup, Minimum tasks etc...) and updated. didnt recieve my new modem today , calling right now to check the matter. will let know whats up when i change the modem. peace

read few of ur Posts here having the same problem, Westel 2200 the dude from verizon told me yesterday that my Modem is faulty (though i think its bullshit since today morning i had 180Kb/s, now having somewhere about 20 lol. last week had few days with 8Kb/s ). i never experienced any problem like this from verizon for the past half a year, i'm on 1.5MB and always got 180kb/s, except these last 2 weeks. so should i change my modem? or woot?
