Talk THANK YOU CHARTER!!!

Today, I get home from work to find that my internet connection isn't working. I look and see that all of my indicator lights are doing what they're supposed to do, so I assume that Charter did some updating on my modem.

I reboot my router, which I usually have to do when my modem is updated. Then I go to BroadbandReports.com and run the speed test.

I'm paying for 768/128, which is right about what I have been getting for ages

V V V V V V V V Now I find this V V V V V V V V V V



Then I find this article on broadbandreports website!

Time to find some reeeeeeeeaalllly big files to download.

Can you say game demos?

DPA, your upload is faster than your download? I guess that's the borked part, huh?

Still screaming! Looks like a great connection for a game server!

Just started downloading the ISO's for Mandrake 9.1, estimated 42 minutes for the first disk

Kuasimodem, yeah its gonna be a game server, BF1942, UTGOTY, and one other, probably a Jedi Knight version... its gonna be swell

that is, once i get my ports restored.. could be as soon as tonight, but oh, wait... that would mean my ISP would have to actually WORK for ME. nevermind

its good for as much as 5000/5000 and hardly slows down when im downloading like mad, ive pulled 4MB/s down and been giving 2MB/s away and it was just finally starting to lower good stuff!
