just did a speed test 1 min ago. we're paying for 24 mbps, but its at 11 right now.

we pay for 50 and i just got 17.5. comcast

Thank you. I think most people have faster speeds than I have because like I said somewhere in here I notice it is faster. But I think people are used to 30 or more and I have 15 and this is running 21. I'm wondering if I could figure out how to drop to basic TV and run the rest off of the Internet, if that would less expensive or more. Like can I watch USA and Hallmark with RoKu or do I need subscriptions for everything?

Yeah no idea on the TV stuff, we don't pay for that, just internet

comcast

i had posted a few weeks ago about how they jacked up our rate from $50 to $80. at that time i think we were paying for 20 or 25. when my boyfriend called about the price increase, they could only give us a new promotion where we'd be paying for 50 for $50. if we wanted service with less speed we'd be paying more. they're so stupid.

the only other option in my area is frontier and the highest speed they offer is like 5 MB. and the service is actually way worse than that. and then this happened recently: http://www.fiercetelecom.com/story/frontier-pay-150m-west-virginia-settle-lawsuit-over-broadband-speed/2015-12-11

I'd like to thank my mom for never believing in me, so I have a crappy IT job resetting passwords and I'm forced to do surveys to supplement my income. Also, I'd like to thank Netflix and Spotify, without which I would have probably quit or gone on a murderous rampage. Also, @BrewMeister for liking all my posts and @bxpretzel for whatever it is they do around here. Lastly, probably Jesus because he's a pretty cool neighbor and makes some mean fajitas!

Edit: Oh yeah, and /r/HWTF because they post all the good stuff.

We need a "dislike" button to show when we agree with the poster's dislike of something.
