A friend of mine was having problems with connection as soon as the switched over. He talked to the rep that did the on-site and he said that TW is cutting back on bandwidth and people will be getting slower speed.

Mine has been slow as hell since yesterdaycompared to what I usually get. Every web page is lagging, and images, forget it.

Just checked the listing, apparently there is a major outage in the general Buffalo area. For intermit connections/slow speeds since yesterday.

A lot of places block outside nslookup requests.

Baldy next time you can’t get on a site do a traceroute and post it.

its absolutely horrendous at my work. it took NYSpeed (and i kid you not) 10 minutes to load. granted, out work comptuers have a lot of shit running on them, and generally speaking, they are not the best computers, but still. we’ve also had other stores calling us a lot lately asking us if we have had problems using iShip (our main package processing software) or ringing though credit card transactions. ours has been balls slow, but i guess some places cant get anything at all. my house os pretty rediculous too. trying to get on UB’s page to get to my email and stuff = forget it. even trying to get on the DC++ hub is rediculous.

all i can say is Verizon better hurry up and get DSL over here, and them im switching to DirectTV and telling time warner to stuff it!

LOL, I don’t think its DNS anymore. It seems more like a bandwidth usage thing. I have tried a few DNS servers, all with the same results.

The “Buffalo outage” would explain the problem. Bottlenecking through the “tunnels” LOL 🙂

It’s actually running at normal speed now. But it sucked for most of yesterday and today.

Hopefully just a temporary glitch.

Still slow as balls, I hate working there and knowing nothing of the problem. But to the best of my knowledge Buffalo isn’t being transisitioned fully for a few more months.

Mine has been much better today as far as surfing goes. The speeds still blow though:

Your download speed : 860 kbps or 107.5 KB/sec.  
That is 73.8% worse than an average user on **adelphia.net**

Your upload speed : 423 kbps or 52.8 KB/sec.  
That is 16.7% worse than an average user on **adelphia.net**

I switched to some very reliable dns servers at the router level and have been fine since.

I was having major speed issues last night when trying to do some work from home so i tried changing my DNS servers back, still slow.

Tried again today and its all good with the auto-assigned DNS servers
