And Comcast Is Still the Suck

Even after the digital transfer, they still oversell their lines and bottleneck websites such as Hulu to a crawl. Once 9pm hits in my neighborhood (especially on Sundays), I can actually watch my latency go up 10ms every second. By the time 10pm hits, I have 1500-3000ms latencies and huge page-load delays.

Games? Forget it. Web browsing? Forget it. Internet connection become inoperable once that magic time hits its mark and that 16 mb connection concurrently hits a brick wall and slows down to 20 kbps and 30% packet loss.

Naturally, Comcast is my only option.
