My Crappy ISP
« on: August 25, 2016, 11:16:05 PM »
Well, my state & KY are suing the local (and, for most of us) the ONLY 'high-speed' provider (what an incredibly non funny joke).

For instance, watching "Gossip Girl" the other night; first, for no reason, bufffffffeeeeerrrrrriiiiinnngggg, finally starts playing for about 6 minutes, then, even though it shows that I have 3 bars, error message saying no internet, give up & watch DS.

I just bought "Gossip Girl" and "Hateful 8".

This is why I love buying TV series.

Vented,

Patti

I have Verizon as my ISP here in Mass., Patti, and I get the same.  They send me multiple notices every month trying to get me to "upgrade" to FiOS.  I've heard it's the same crap.  Buffer buffer buffer.

It's so much more relaxing to just put the DVD in the disc drive and actually sit back to enjoy watching something.  Rather than the anxiety that kicks in whenever I try to view anything I actually care about online.
