20:41.47 | plarsen | WOW - a flora of activity here :) |
20:41.55 | plarsen | Good afternoon gentlemen (man) |
20:51.44 | plarsen | Website updated btw. |
20:51.50 | plarsen | Thanks for a nice short summary |
20:57.09 | stickster | np :-) |
21:02.15 | plarsen | I've got plentyful of problems with my "ISP" these days. Way slow and extreeme latencies in the SECONDS makes pretty much anything on the internet "dead". |
21:02.24 | stickster | ugh. |
21:02.26 | plarsen | Comcat "support" of course aint much help |
21:02.27 | stickster | That's no fun. |
21:02.32 | plarsen | SOOO .. any ideas?? |
21:03.09 | plarsen | I think I'm looking for a "business" deal with GUARENTEED low speeds - hence dedicated connections |
21:03.09 | stickster | Well, I have Cox and have had close to no problems with them |
21:03.09 | plarsen | FIOS aint here yet :( |
21:03.24 | plarsen | darn it ... "wify calls" ... brb ;) |
21:11.03 | plarsen | ok, back |
21:11.45 | plarsen | I've got very bad experiences with Verizon's DSL too. |
21:12.04 | plarsen | But unfortunately, those are the only players that might cover us here in the boonies :( |
21:18.13 | stickster | A friend of mine is near Seattle but similarly vexed. |
21:18.25 | stickster | He is using a stopgap solution right now, satellite internet. |
21:18.38 | stickster | But that's because he knows FiOS is coming his way in < 12 months |
21:21.59 | plarsen | Yeah, problem is satelite has a huge latency too, plus they won't guarentee anything in bad weather. I've looked into it :( |
21:22.26 | plarsen | I see fiber in the ground here ... so I don't think it 10 years away ... |
21:23.09 | plarsen | If it wasn't for the HUGE slowdown these days I would simply just call it the same ... "stopgap" solution until fios .. the dedicated solution that SHOULD be the best of both worlds. |
