Hm, that's odd, I use Qwest/MSN too and I haven't experienced any of those problems.  ::)


Though, my service isn't as fast as I'd like it to be, I get like 1.3 Mbps download and like 300 Kbps for uploads. >_>

i have broadband/cable internet, the only problem is that whenever my mom uses the wireless phone i lose the connection completely on my laptop, but i figured out that it does that because the wireless phone and the router run of the exact same channel, so when my mom uses the phone, it somehow blocks the router out or something. :(

So change it, not hard to do.

buy a whole new phone, mom won't do it. buy a whole new router, mom defiantly won't do it. change the channel of the phone/router, wont work, both only run in a 2.4 GHz range. oh, and it also messes up the wi-fi on my wii. :(

i hate it worse when it happens to the  wifi on my wii, i could be in the middle of a MSC match, and my mom will use the phone then it will lag really bad then lose the connection. :(

It's cable.

I'm getting 100.0 Mbps at almost all times, never had a problem.

Well, except the darned 70 or so dollar price tag.

Fucking money hogs that are Time Warner -_-

I've got Optimum Online...it's quite reliable but since we have Optimum Voice too, if my mom's on the phone the Internet slows down :P

or maybe that's because the phone is wireless and I'm on a laptop...or a combination of the two.  Whatever.
I have Optimum online but I think AT&T for phones so I'm good
