Let's have a chat (or rant) about our ISP's.
Mine's been doing strange stuff lately. In the last few days I've found my internet going significantly slower than usual. I did some speed tests and averaged about 5-6 mbps, 9 mbps maximum and 1-2 at the worst moments. Normally I'd average about 9 mbps, with a maximum of around 15. Now, this is still much slower than what my ISP promises (50 mbps), but at least I didn't have to wait 2 minutes for a simple page to load. I know we didn't go over any datacap because there isn't any, and according to their website we've downloaded less than 100 Gb this month, which is lower than the datacap of a cheaper package.
Here comes the best part: Yesterday I went to my ISP's website, just to check if there was a message about maintenance in my area that might explain my speeds. For some reason (I can't for the life of me remember why) I went to check up on their packages. What do I see: The offered download speed of every single available package has been taken down from 50 mbps to 30 mbps (the only difference lies in upload speed, data cap and 3G download speed). We didn't get an e-mail, no PSA, no message on the radio, nothing.
So, what are your stories about your ISP's?
Btw, this is what I'm getting right now:
