People!! I'm finally getting high speed internet I can game on.:D I've waited 7 years.
A tri county wireless provider has blessed our area. Downloads of 2000KB, uploads of 1200KB and most importantly a latency of 50ms. The installer will be here tomorrow to verify my signal. He's 99.9% sure I'll be fine. Thank you an carry on.
Yes, I'm ecstatic.

Well, no wonder you have been constantly crabby.

Well, bad news. Can't get a signal. I'm so disgusted right now. First Comcast has told me over and over for 2 years that they'll be providing service soon and then don't and now this. The tech said that a tower is proposed that will give us a signal but hasn't been built yet. Here we go again...:mad:

I think I would be extremely aggravated if I was you. Did you pay for the high speed service already? I hope not. It would be a rip off.
Stop whining about your life's woes. The soldier who fought for your freedom lost two arms and a leg. You don't hear him complaining.
