Morning, I love dealing with ISP’s, I really love our current ISP when they work, but when there is an issue I friggin hate dealing with them.
Yesterday I had hardly any download speed, 247 kbps but the upload was still 8 + mbps, so I call my ISP and of course they blame my router which I then tell them in 7 or so years I’ve had broadband never once has it been my router and I refuse to unplug, plug into a different port and whatever BS “hoop jumping” they have in store for me so lets just cut to the chase and send a tech guy out to me so he can tell me its some hub a mile away.
So after a long discussion of him asking me to bypass my router and me refusing, he transfers me and I get to have the same conversation again and this guy got rather pissy with me and said “Look, if a tech guy comes out the first thing he will do is bypass your router” which made me laugh and I said that’s fine, he is paid to jump through hoops, but I know if he does do that he will be the first to tell me its not my router” which upset the other guy who said “FINE, he will be there Monday morning”
So this morning I wake up and notice I have a 1585 down and 852 up….
DAMN ROUTER!
