Oh god you are gay. Direct tv sucks horse dick
I have had bandwidth in excess of 25mbps through RR turbo when testing on speakeasy. Using newsgroups to download things I can consistantly hit 2.5-2.8mb/s.
It wasnt FiOS it was DSL then
DirecTV is awesome, they don’t compress the shit out of their streams… Interface is 10x better
Nice!
thats fucked up, they shouldn’t have those fees especially since getting customers to switch over should be top priority
fios is nice it just isnt available in my area. DSL sucked it was horribly slow. Downloads were slow internet gameplay blew bigger dick then psi2high in a male strip club
Here are my TW speeds for $64.90/month (RR Turbo with Powerboost):
EDIT: For $3 more, I signed up for Road Runner Extreme from Time Warner. 30mbps down and 5mbps as opposed to my old speeds of 15mbps down and 1mbps down (I was actually getting 28 and 1 though). NICE. That extra 4mbps up is going to be so much better.
Stock RR. Not sure if its that accurate tho
That’s about right. Stock RR is 10/1.
I am strongly considering the extra cost for the Turbo. I play alot of online games, and its just frustrating when my shit slows down with 4 PCs running on it.
Yea stock rr will vary between 8 and 10. That was real fast for turbo by the way
Fios > you.
You <3 dick
Yeah I know.
I had a 5yr old modem connected when I first got Turbo and was getting the 15/1 that was stated on their site. However, it was starting to flake out (physical modem problem) so I had them replace it 3 months ago and since then I’ve been well over 20 lol.
NOW, if that pattern holds true, then I should be able to get over 30 once they install the extreme. That would be great haha.
Double Post…my bad.
Got the new service:
Nice
The upload speed is unreal, that’s where it’s at.
Dunno what’s up with the dl speed, it’s been as high as 27 before? Whatev, Fios is the balls.
I thought I heard something a while back stating that Verizon stopped the FiOS rollout in the Capital District because they weren’t getting enough of a return on their investment. I’ve always had good luck with TWC as well… but have had modems flake out.
ReDevil, if the other pc’s are downloading torrents (porn, movies, music, etc) while you are trying to do other more interactive things (streaming shit, games, general browsing, etc), your connection will still be slow as shit with RR Turbo because a lot of those peer sharing programs will use up every available bit of bandwidth you have. Check that out as well if its really that terrible.
Verizon telecom BD manager here told me the same thing, it’s happening in lots of areas nationwide.
