The thread with this name that was closed with no explanation did serve a useful purpose, so I am opening a new one to replace it.

Speed is back to normal now, and if there was a shutdown, I wasn't here to witness it.

    well its 3:58 now Eastern Daylight time. And when I firstload up this screen it was 3:48.

    Why do they have to reboot the software ever other day. Sounds like they need to throw away all their servers and get some Macintosh Servers and OSX.5 Server version. Then they could go years without a boot.

    Just getting ready to reboot right now (about 12:30). Will be down for a minute or two, then slow for 30 minutes.

    Today I can watch paint dry. before reading anything here.

    Would it do any good if I traveled to where the person is That is responsible for maintaining this Forum setup and beat the tar out of him?! Somebody need to light a fire under who ever it is.

    Can't they trace where where the slow down is and have that part straighten out their Problem?

    In Todays Technology everything like this should either be on Fibre Optic, or satellite feed in between first hop and just before the last hope

    This is nonsense. One day it comes up so fast it gets on the screen before you can blink your eye. 10 minutes later it takes 10 minutes for something to load.

    It's kinda spotty in here right now.

    It times out, I come back a few minutes later and it's fine...

    I've left a note on my front door for the installer tech to bang really hard and wake me up when the FiOS line is right outside my door, ready for me to hook up to.

    Until that time, cable internet is the fastest, most robust residential connection we here in the US can get.

    Nothing comes close to FiOS. 20/5 here for $44.95/month.

    My ISP connects to Embarq (was Sprint) I believe now the connections are over Fiber Optic. At one time they were over dedicated copper lines, but was different from typical POTS system though I couldn't explain how. Because at one time they had a system believe called ISDN in which you could get bonded pair line would increase your bandwidth twice as much.

    Besides DSL they also have Broadband over satellite.

    I don't have problems with my ISP either (except for the bill).

    I meant that different ISPs connect to the Internet in different ways.
