Is it me or has anyone else noticed that the entire net seems to be backed up.
Pings in games tonight for example are doodie.
I hope it's not my ISP

Well I spoke to my ISP about it.
There was major major traffic on there servers last night.
The good news is because of me complaining in person to them I got 3 months free service :D

They know me by face between my TV cable and my internet service I am there so damn much. :lol:

Let's see in the past six months since I moved in here I have only had to pay for 4 months of TV service and a month of internet.

Everytime there is a poweroutage I get freebies :lol:
The sad thing is that is is all legit complaints.

Well I might have to start complaining about my cable service. It seems to burp a lot, and then I have to wait a minute for it to come back. The first time it happened, I called, and I didn't even get through and I was back online, so I don't bother, yet lol

I get some strange flashes across the screen and then no sound.
Not my TV's. They say it's nothing all the time.
BS!!!
As far as internet. I t very rarely goes out but as I am not getting the speed that I pay for as of yet.
They say they are working on it. (they say this so I will stop bothering them)

it doesn&#39;t burn out, it BURPS, like I loose connection for about 30 seconds or so, and then it comes back, which that is what hurts in games, get the f9 or try to stabalize connecion, but I won&#39;t wait for it that long to come back.
