My local ISP is doing a wicked promo on their new high-end internet plan. It's cheaper than my old rate and the speed is nuts!

Whoa, that's wicked!

Wow you have a great internet speed. Must pay quite a bit for it.

Not bad considering how fast it is! $80 per month.

Wow very pricy almost double what I pay.

It's basically impossible to get internet here at all for $40 / month.

The cheapest plan I'm aware of around here is $55 / month. It's 5 Mbps.
I'm only paying $25 more than that for 180 Mbps. I'm okay with that.

Yeah it's a really dumb tier system.

Yeah I know Canada in some parts barely has wifi there. Fifty five isn't to bad I guess but you're not getting the speed you have now. So glad you're okay with paying more.

I recently upgraded my speed.

ADFan185 · **Reply #148 on:** December 05, 2016, 02:18:11 PM

That's not a bad speed at all

I noted only one curve lit up on the connection while I'm at my parents house and decided to test it.

Something's wrong! I'm switching to the other one. I'll edit the results.

EDIT: MUCH BETTER!

My parents have 3 connections. An old one they don't use anymore, a main one and a secondary one. The first is the main one, the second is the secondary one. Looks like I'm using the secondary one today.

Question for Mr. "Expert" Landbeforetimelover, is it bad for me to have zero in ping?

Might explain the problems I'm having with playback today.

I know this was for Landbeforetimelover, but I can give an answer.

Essentially, what ping is, is the reaction time of your connection. The lower the ping, the better. It means your connection is very responsive.

Today, I have the rare privilege of being connected to my parents internet via ethernet cable. As such...

Yeah, quite the difference.

Here's how my college Internet fares.

It's even quicker when I connect to heaven!

Not so fast when I try and connect to my hometown.

I just did this with my Internet at home. Here's how the best service we can get at our house fares:

Muwahahahahaha!!! They finally got the improved cable service installed in the area.

I'm pretty happy with what I can get in the new apartment. Higher speeds than I had previously and I pay less, win win!

pokeplayer984 · **Reply #157 on:** July 25, 2018, 09:22:48 PM

Rhombus, you put us all to shame. Not that I'm jealous or anything.

Besides, for now I'm content with what I have.

Tell me about it... barely 8 Mbps where I live...

For a fairly rural area, not bad!
