My mum knows not of the internet.
 
She changed our internet for 5 people, a whole family that uses the internet every day to fucking 10 GIG. That's fucking SO SMALL.

When my dad let me change it to 60 GIG, she had a hissy fit, rang up & changed it back to 10 GIG again. SO FUCKING SLOW.

We recently changed service providers. Our old provider we never had any problems with, but this new one is absolute shit.

Eep! That sucks. I hope everything gets settled.

I know I'll never have a problem with that, because I know our plan and it's not like that. Plus my mom doesn't know anything about computers, so I deal with it all. xD

  • lolz, my internet is only 52 Kbps.
    I'm sure 10 Gbps is enough to get by.

Do you know why she wanted to make it slower? Is it money problems or something?

Low Virtual Memory 04-04-2007 05:18 AM

Mine is 54 MBPs?

I don't know what that means, but I'm sorry. You should hypnotize her to change it while she is sleeping.

:o

Or try?

I didn't understand that at all. ^__^

jazzkitteh 04-04-2007 05:49 AM

Well ... the language was colorfull. But thats about all i got outta this. Was there a reason she lowered it?

Lilithia 04-04-2007 06:12 AM

Apparently there was a deal, so she switched it & the deal has been crap because it's so slow etc. Apparently we've used up all the 10 GIG already. Plus there's 5 of us all using the internet everyday, it's so easy to use 10 GIG up quickly.

kimu 04-04-2007 06:50 AM

WHy the hell did she change it to that speed? D :
To save money?

Because someone offered a "better deal" for less speed!? x____X

That's crazy.

At home we have a cable modem and it's supposedly the fastest we can get until they run fiber in our neighborhood - but since my connection at work is so fast I get frustrated with the cable modem at home for being too slow.

It's amazing how impatient I've gotten - it scares me sometimes.

Silence 04-04-2007 01:10 PM

Wow, that really sucks.

My internet is really fast, so when I use the computers at school, I also get frustrated, especially because the computers themselves are slow, not just the internet.

secretdae007 04-04-2007 01:12 PM

Can't say that I've had that problem but it took forever to convince her to go to DSL v.v; Of course, our DSL isn't much better, at least when I use our actual service provider (Verizon).
Of course, my mom wouldn't go against what I have to say anyway because in this house, I know the most about the computer and need for space... Mostly because I spend the most time on the computer. I am also the only one who knows how to type properly and quickly (everyone uses the one finger, look for the letter ten minutes method of typing).

Lilithia 04-04-2007 02:27 PM

Maybe someone is leeching off our wireless. :<

lonewolf 04-04-2007 02:28 PM

Lilithia 04-04-2007 02:35 PM

I forget now. All my brain says is 10 GIG. XD

lonewolf 04-04-2007 02:38 PM

he if its bandwidth for 5 peopel that would suck DX for light use i can do a gig in 1-2 weeks, and thast with no downloads atol DX so 5 people for a month would suck DX

I'd like throw things at the computer screen while things load.
Hope things get better for you. DDDDD8

MY mom tried to put a DVD in a CD player, and asked why the TV wasn't coming on with the movie?

Yeeah.

--She doesn't even know how to change anything about the internet, or memory. She hasn't gotten to that point yet. >.<''

Machika 10-14-2007 09:16 PM

i've got no clue what our internet is.
i just know it's ridiculously slow,
so since i've got a laptop,
i just use the closest wireless network without a password.

Clickmyname 10-14-2007 09:53 PM

Queen Fool 10-14-2007 10:58 PM

Lovely.

My mom thinks her 6 MBPS connection is so amazingly fast...she doesn't realize that when mine's under 54 MBPS, it means something isn't working right.
