@bgodette@CenturyLink 1. that speed isn't what i got the last 10 years over same copper 2. i'm 5k feet as the crow flies basically -
@attritionorg 1/2 since you've had it for 10y, and are over 5k, it's possible they've installed a VDSL remote and you're getting shit on... -
@attritionorg 2/2 which is a side effect for CLink to push out legacy copper they're required to share. FTTN (VDSL) is closed to 3rd party. -
@bgodette implying pushing out old shared copper, in favor of different service, presumably higher priced? -
@attritionorg not so much actually, but it locks out CLECs from providing xDSL services to an area and paves path to FTTH later. -
@bgodette yeah. i've asked, begged them to take more money for better bandwidth, no joy every time. =( -
@attritionorg if you're going to DenSec tomorrow we could talk. - 1 more reply

@attritionorg@CenturyLink that is unforgivably slow. -
@evasiv3
@CenturyLink i'm paying for 7mb down, 800k up, the past 12 years. And I can't even get that... -
@attritionorg@CenturyLink Wow. Here I am trying to cope with my downstep from 250/20 to 60/10. I should be thankful. :/ -
@evasiv3
@CenturyLink yep. 7mb/800k has been the 'max' they offered for over a decade. They claim to be 'fast' and a technology company. -
@attritionorg@CenturyLink Might as well send your packets on the backs of squirrels. ;) TCP/IP over Squirrel. xD

@attritionorg Well@CenturyLink kept their "up to" promise didn't they? You did not receive a speed over 1Gb.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@attritionorg I'm not sure how you shove 100 mbps down a single twisted pair. Sadly DSL cannot compete with the bandwidth of coax. -
@supersat@attritionorg Here in Vancouver, you can get 100Mb/s via DSL in some locations, but it requires 2 pairs. I have that plan.

@attritionorg@CenturyLink 5y ago, they consistently delivered me 5gig. 3y ago, suddenly cut it down to 3gig, claiming "bandwidth exhaust."Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

@attritionorg@CenturyLink Comcast does the same thing to be fair. My tethered LTE maxes out at 4mbps and is 2x as fast as at home.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
