What ISP to use? <ALSO EPIC VIDEO INSIDE>
Puppetpallmich | 12:07 AM on 03.02.2008 18 comments


so my isp (comcast) has been basicaly a piece of shit lately and i was wondering what i should swith to. I do a speed test and get very shitty download rates. i have dd-wrt installed on my lynksis wrt54g and still get shitty speed.

DIRECT LINK
I also have recently been unable to go to certian websites or ip's namely http://www.electricretard.com and http://www.slashinggames.org. i was wondering what isp i should switch to and what experiences you guys have had with your or a way to fix this shit. oh and btw

it was a comcast rep on the other end of the line. u see what i go thru now. they also use stickam and irc there which as we know is old and busted

Video filmed by rorkoshakie or however us spell it. hes the crazy republican

i have comcast as well and I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THEIR PROBLEMS LIKE 5 SECS AGO mainly because i get like 5 min on 5 min off although my speed tests are amazing. Btw i can go to those websites....

Sucks doesn't it? Comcast I mean. I get regularly disconnected at least once a day of which I think is a pain in the ass and the damn cable TV goes out or gets shitfaced more than Paris frickin' Hilton. I could be delightfully watching TV and then I get snow or the picture and/or sound fucks up and I feel like booting those sons of a bitches right in the ass.

So yeah, if you can get something else because Comcast is bullshit!

I'm moreso floored by how retarded that McDonald's manager was, and how the girl just went along with it.

Also, don't know if you can get it, but I have Time Warner's Roadrunner, and that works pretty well.
vexed alex's Destructoid Blog
Doesn't Time Warner own Comcast? Because that's what I have and it used to be Comcast. The cable box that I bought has a sticker that says Time Warner but under it, it says Comcast.
NeoPrime's Destructoid Blog
wtf....... she liked it?
WDot's Destructoid Blog
vexed_alex: I don't think TW owns Comcast, but a year or two ago Time Warner and Comcast shifted around their "turf." So I was a Comcast customer, now I run TW. Probably vice versa for some others.

That said, you're really lucky if you actually get a choice. Many cities in the USA have a cable provider and a DSL provider and that's as good as competition gets.
Awesome Locks's Destructoid Blog
You've gotta remember that Comcast is a Cable internet provider, and Cable internet connections are shared throughout your section of the network grid, so your connection speed is going to fluctuate as more/less people are using their internet. If you have no other choice (you probably don't, as this is a common problem in a lot of America) I'd recommend going here [url="http://www.dslreports.com/"]link[/ur] (fuck I hate bbcode) To check out some DSL providers, as DSl is a constant connection speed.

Verizon DSL is pretty decent in my area, but then again the only other option is Comcast.
