Anyone in the New York or other areas OL supported areas getting terrible speeds? Its freaking outrageous, paying $50 every month and I cant even get my normal 15/2. I usually do some routine speed checks and maintenance on my router (Only tech savy person in this house). The speeds are so inconsistent, I did a speed test 10 minutes ago and it was 6down/2up..... Now this? I mean what the hell? Calling and complaining doesn't achieve shit, they dont give a damn rats ass. I couldnt even play SC without lagging up a storm damn it!! Now theres massive PACKET LOSS WTF!!!!

[image loading]


Apparently a lot of users on dslreports is also complaining about OL's recent service.
And I usually disconnect all PC's from my router except the one I administrate from so I get the best estimate.

End rant.

When I torrent it seems to cap both my download (~2mb) and upload (100k), that might be intentional on their part though.

I wanted to switch to FIOS and get the 30/15 package. But, Verizon is so slick with their telco and hidden charges. Not to mention their crappy contracts. And the fact that I used DSL before, they ripped me for 4 years

Has Canada even implemented a law for downloading illegal torrents yet?

Uh, I'm 11.46 download and 2.04 upload, is that standard?

My home internet is so incredibly weak. I've got OO here and at home, and their service is shit all around. The only reason we keep them is because Verizon is just as shitty, and we get all local sports in HD with Opt, and that free movie Tuesdays.

Honestly though I barely watch TV and we use satellite instead. I am still thinking of switching to Verizon, the so called hidden charges which comes to around $20 extra is because its a telco. The insane packet loss and shitty speeds is driving me nuts. Especially the massive packet loss..........
