Right, so my family uses Comcast because AT&T screwed us (we bought DSL, they never turned it on, then charged us for the time it wasn't on when we tried to cancel), but as some might have noticed today (me getting 10 minute lag, then recovering slightly only to die to a tradelane right before an event... :() it sucks. I also completely lost connection to such easy things as google, and when I tried to restart the connection, windows told me "cannot connect, TCP/IP not enabled on this connection". I unplugged it, waited five minutes, and tried again, and while I got internet, windows still says disconnected.
Grr...
I had no problems with Insight, and then Comcast bought them out. I thought the suckage might have something to do with the nearby college campus, but they ended about a month ago, and it still sucks.
So, what do y'all use? I'm looking into finding something to switch to, but since most of the good ones were eaten by a now overloaded Comcast and AT&T out-evils most diabolical agents of hell, I can't think of anything. Help!
Oh yeah, I get a ping of ~160, yet almost always have red lag. It seems to be related to stuff simply not going through to the server, as I often have to reload pages when they bog down.
