revolink24 Posted March 27, 2011 Report Posted March 27, 2011 (edited) I just wish there were more Head-Casers in the area, and that it weren't so damn hard to get to NYC. . Edited March 27, 2011 by revolink24 Quote
crappyjones123 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 I just wished there were more people there. The place was dead while I was there. Quote
revolink24 Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 I just wished there were more people there. The place was dead while I was there. It's not so bad now. I find plenty of stuff to do on campus and in Rochester (but it sucks if you don't have a car.) Quote
Knuckledragger Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Posted June 13, 2011 We've now got internets at the new house on the Vineyard. Damn sight faster than I get on the mainland. Of course it's sodding Comcast and probably bandwidth capped at some absurdly low level. Quote

Not to mention they supposedly uses some kind of "boost" trick that makes it look faster on speed testing websites. Quote
Grahame Posted June 19, 2011 Report Posted June 19, 2011 Just self installed a Docsis 2.0 Modem I got at a garage sale this morning for $5. Slightly improved performance over the leased Docsis 1.0 modem which was EOL'ed ( since 1/11 - thanks for the heads up comcast - not) So thats $7 + tax, less a month that I now have to hand over to comcast. ROI of < 1 month = WIN ! Quote
crappyjones123 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Posted June 23, 2011 I don't wanna brag, but... this is better than i have at home. its sad. Quote
mikeymad Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 (edited) Spent the afternoon with Comcast... I am back on the internets... Seems to be doing pretty good: Edited July 4, 2011 by mikeymad Quote

Torpedo Posted July 4, 2011 Report Posted July 4, 2011 Speeds at work, where I've been not able to use internet for a while, due to their giving new login credentials. I wish I had this at home, though there things have improved quite a bit. Quote
revolink24 Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 Wow, that's an awesome connection for home. Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 (edited) My folks' Roadrunner service up in Maine isn't all that great either, though in their case, both download and upload speed are atrocious. Of course, my in-laws' service (cable) is so bad that it's noticeably faster if I leave my iPhone on 3G than use their WiFi. Edited July 18, 2011 by Salt Peanuts Quote
Salt Peanuts Posted July 18, 2011 Report Posted July 18, 2011 Predictably, this same cable company recently reassured my father-in-law multiple times they offered HD service in his area, only to tell him otherwise after he had replaced the TV. Quote
