2 May 2010I pay for a pretty fast pipe here. Lately, videos have been stalling as I tried to play them, and I’ve been getting extremely annoyed.
I just tried SpeedTest.net, and got these atrocious results:
I was incensed, and decided I’d call and complain. But first, I decided to rule out wireless as the cause, since I knew they’d ask about that.
I’m pretty sure I’m paying for 25/15, but I won’t complain that wired actually surpasses that.
Think the landlord will mind if I run some Ethernet drops?
