Frustrated
Thu Jan 12, 2012 6:56:44 pm


My internet download speed is usually around 200 KB/s. Usually faster.


For the last week or so, I'm lucky if it caps off at 15 KB/s




I want to break the internet.

sounds like you already broke it :-/
Google Chrome screwed my download speed. I can either have fast page loads of fast downloads.. not both.

Installed any new computer parts/software lately?

Internet cables safely out of reach of cat teeth?

Oh, and did you forget to sacrifice 3 baby woodland animals to Ethernetatis, God Supreme of the Internet Domain this month?

I'll bet that's it.

Hmm. That is weird.

Well, if you're using wireless, it might be interference from neighbor wireless and/or phone signals. Or baby woodland animal ghosts. (<--- science)

Or your Service Provider has dutifully and professionally broken everything.

Other than that, I have no idea.....yet.

You know, I'm not sure. All I know is that they're attracted to neck ties.
