Verizon DSL blues
Everything was great until mid December I went from always between 2.5 to 2.8 Meg down to 700k - 1.2M. Unless of course it's in the middle of the night then speeds seem to return. Called tech support 3 times, 2 time I called said ran test I was getting 3.3Meg down and 800+k up. Sounds great but that's seems to be the speed between my house and verizon office. The problems seem to be some where on verizon-gni, alter or quest networks. The last tech said I needed a new modem, I was fairly certain it wouldn't work but for $30.00 I bought it anyway. Didn't help. So I called to cancel and now they want to send Geek Squad out free of charge. I might do it so they can prove to me verizon isn't buying enough bandwidth or they are previsioning to much... I have the 3Meg down 768k up for approx. 2 years and not very happy any more. Either way if it doesn't improve I'll be switching to cable and VOIP, so they'll loose DSL, Local and Long distance from me.
