WHY MUST YOUR CHARTER BE BETTER THAN MY CHARTER?! ;_;[/QUOTE] I live in a neighborhood that gets hardly any traffic, so the few people who do use the internet for anything besides email get a little more. My friend who lives down the street called to charter to complain about an internet issue, which caused a decrease to 14Mb/s, when they were getting 25+.

[URL=http://www.speedtest.net][IMG]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1125408394.png[/IMG][/URL] It's slightly slow right now. The funniest thing is that i had 10mbit fiber optic back in 2003 and that shit still rapes 80% of people connection. People should shove a glowing metal rod up the ass of their politicans and isps.

[URL=http://www.speedtest.net][IMG]http://www.speedtest.net/result/1125938933.png[/IMG][/URL] I live in a student house. It's meant to be Virgins 50mb broadband but it's never anywhere near :/ I should really complain.
