658132 2008-04-12 07:21:00 I am on Slingshot, the "extreme" plan, FS/128k 6gb.

It has always gone at 150kb/s roughly, but a few days ago, I had speeds of 500kb/s+.

I know this happened magically, because it has never done it before and it is not doing it again.

I want to know why my internet is going at a measly 150kb/s, and how I can get it back up to at least 200kb/s.

Any help appreciated.

They've got me with ye olde "12 Month Contract".

We had it on a month-to-month one, but the monkeys didn't think we paid, cut us off, and stuck us back on but put us on a 12 month contract.

Hmmm. How does that help? I can tell you where I live, there are people with various ISPs and we all get the same crap speed.

658141 2008-04-16 10:31:00 Last few days - you must be joking. Xnet has been dog slow on international traffic at peak times (400kbs to LA) for weeks. Can't even stream youtube. linw (53)
