Internet troubles...

Well.......after half a dozen calls....one of which ended with me telling the customer service representative that she needs to go to school to learn how to speak English and getting hung up on, 7 emails, and at least a dozen "chats" this had been resolved...sorta.

Started another chat last night. Finally got somebody who gave a rats arse. According to him the problem "may" have been some sort of hardware issue...his tests showed I had 5 different devices recieving data....only thing that was receiving data was my laptop that was hard wored to the modem....
He wrote up another ticket.....tech guy called me at 8:15 this morning. He told me that the "congestion" was on their end. He said the network is seriously overloaded. I cut him off...asking about the 3 conduits that were getting buried about 5 miles from us. Tech told me that CenturyLink will be running fiber optics out here. Supposed to be done by end of January. He told me that we will be getting an upgrade in speed, unsure of what speed. He also said we will be getting an increase in equipment. Anybody that moves into this area right now can not get a landline.....unless someone has their services terminated. We had to wait 6 months to get a landline
