I had to switch from cable internet to DSL today (because of the move). Anyway, this is very slow. I mean, worse than 56K slow.
I read that it takes a few days for the telco to really get your DSL line configured. Is this true? That would explain the slowness. -Mytho |

Did you test your connection speed?

I did this earlier today.
The results were very inconsistent; sometimes I got a download speed of 1.2 MBs and other times I barely hit 90 kb/s. -Mytho |

Hmm maybe they are still working on it. But you also could have a bad dsl modem. I would *oh no* call tech support and explain the problem. They will most likely have to send someone out to investigate. | ||||

I think I'll just wait a few more days. If the problem persists, I'll follow your advice and get a techie out here.
-Mytho Posted Thu Nov 04, 2004 4:44 pm: Ok. After a router upgrade, I'm blazing across the internet. OC PS2 only takes two seconds to load up! My upload speed is pretty odd. I was hosting a game on UC and I was able to host eight people, twice as many as before. My upload was about 20kb/s faster on Comcast. -Mytho |

if you got the modem and all the stuff you orderd b4 they told you your line would be ready that could be y, i had those problems when i got mines...... just give it a couple of days and see what happens and if not call those bastards up and let them hear your problems....... | ||||

My ISP told me to leave my modem on for the first 10 days straight, since they tend to tweak shit. I would suggest that, too. My speed actually improved gradually. | ||||

That's what I was thinking lanzar. My speed improved drastically after a day. Now my speed-test results are pretty consistent.
