Wait, did you change your ISP code any time recently?

 

My dad mentioned that, but since he's the least computer literate out of everyone in the family, I can't expect him to, well, actually make any sense.

Are you going wired or wireless?

[Gone Airbourne 21,977]

 

 

Oh, did that other job not work out for ya? The one your friend was gonna set you up in? Das no good D:

 

Well I applied at that job no response back. So since then just been applying for other places around you know just hoping to land something eventually. 

@@Ganaram Inukshuk,

What service do you have?  

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Also, it feels like someone is ignoring me for whatever reason.

 

Simply put, I felt like you've grown too distant for me to talk to.

 

Are you going wired or wireless?

 

Wired. I kinda have to be; I renounced the use of laptops for household use about a year ago.

 

What service do you have?

Verizon.

Not sure how, but ok. Fair enough, guy. x)

You should run a test and see how strong the connection is between your router and the ISP server. Edited April 5, 2014 by LatinoChurro

This is more specific than just going to speedtest.net, ain't it?

[Gone Airbourne 21,977]

well was just stopping by for a bit hope all of you have been doing well though as always.

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Let's see, erratic changes to avatar and username before switching back to Haven. You're the reason for making anime awkward on me.

Of course, but first what operating system are you using? Windows? it could be a problem with that too, due to the fact that the specifications could be reconfigured.

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Oh by the way... Lost the result of my first speed test; second time around, I timed out.

Windows 8 minus 1. What else?

 

(Oh by the way, there are three other users in my home, so my guess is that they're also gumming up the lines, or at least that's been the theory for, well, the past year.)

Aww, you're leaving already? D:

Oh, well, nice chatting wit ya.

ohps. :x

I do like to change mah name and somewhat dress up in whatever waifu I happened to obtain from the newest anime Ive watched. Can't disagree with that. Guess it can be somewhat of a bad thing then, huh.

 

And last I remember, you never cared for anime anyhow. I shouldn't have made it much worse.

 

 

 

Also, you remind me.....I think its time to find something to dress up in again. x)

Talk with your Internet provider and see what options you get. At the very least, get your ISP changed. And yeah, those other users sound like a problem. If possible, maybe you could find a way to eliminate them.

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

Also, speaking of animu and avvies and such. @LatinoChurro. Your avvy. I wholeheartedly approve.

67% of the other users is the rest of my family, AKA my Internet-addicted autistic sisters. Sidenote: I picked up on their habits; I honestly think one of them's a furry (for lack of a better word) and the other's an anime freak.

 

The other 33% is my little brother, but all of them, myself included, have to be connected continuously.

 

The other 1% is my dad, who only ever browses YouoYTuuT for news (not like it matters since he browses so little).

 

Yeah, probably I better find a different provider. I've had enough as it is.

Alright, I've had enough.

You your using wired right? What cables exactly are you using??

[Haven Celestii 9,385]

Of me liking someone else's avatar?

 

Not even sure how that remotely concerns or affects you at all. .-.

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Like, between the router and my machine? Cat5 cable. I can't confirm the exact name...

Might be a stretch but you could shop for different ones. How much wear has it accumulated?

No, enough of the anime gawk.

It's got yellow insulation, but it doesn't to be that damaged. I kinda feel like the cables on the inside have the least protection at the ends because if I tug on them too hard, I'll pull the yellow part off and expose the inner cables.

 

The worst part is I can't tell if that's the same cable I used back in 2006.

*gives cider jars to everyone*

Sleepless night, gentlemen?

 

 

Except it took me about 200 times longer than average to even make a post like that.

 

Question: My connection speed gets as low as 1kbps but currently averages ~10kbps. Is that pitiful?

My question here is... why haven't you complain about that to Verizon? Or have you already done so?

The overall consensus so far, between here and my family, is ditch Verizon and find something else that works; the familial consensus says HughesNet. That's why we don't have Dish Network or Toyota, but instead DirecTV and Mazda/Nissan/Ford. And why it took me three years to find a reliable-ish reviewer for my writing.

 

But then this is a fairly inefficient and also time-constrained family. It took 18 months to build my computer and a $400 electric bill to figure out that our AC was truly broken. How much more to another of our first-world axioms?

 

Oh by the way, part of the reason I stay up until 03:00+ is because that's when I have the best Internet connection.

Ahhhhh, I see now. Doesn't yellow insulation offer less protection??

[Ganaram Inukshuk 3,682]

Oh god, they have Cat6 now?

 

Well, the Cat5 I had felt clunky as it is. Well, that confirms it: get a whole new cable, that is, if that even helps...
