It’s been more than 24 hours since I reported my DSL speed problems to Earthlink and was told that I’d hear something in 24 hours. Not a word and the speed is still way down.
I was optimistic because as I left for work this morning I noticed guys with hard hats and ladders wandering through a neighbor’s backyard. I actually thought that was a quick response, but I guess it could have been unrelated.
I did a test this evening and got a down speed of LESS than 100kbps. It’s approaching dialup speed. I wonder if the problem is progressive and my speed has been dropping for some time.
If you don’t hear from me for a few days send a rescue team with spools of Cat5 and a crimping tool.
