I literally just took a whole minute to load this thread and all it has are words.


This is the internet in this town. If it rains, I kid you not, it gets even worse.

There's something wrong with mine too. The past two days I cannot watch TV downstairs because the TV is connected via wifi to the channels. My wifi is on but its not loading. My phone and iPads connect to the wifi but all the webpages do is spin.

I tried turning it off and back on. I gotta call specialist. I cant figure it out.

I have a tiny 20" TV in my daughters room that plugs directly into the wall cable jack and that is the only TV I can watch in the house right now

Or having to spend half an hour downloading a grainy 320x240 1 minute pr0n clip, or getting a progressive load JPEG and having to use your imagination on what the chick looked like... Provided that the modem didn't disconnect on you

Woaaa throwback! Totally forgot but it seems like it was just yesterday now you mention it!

Ah good old days, 6 hours of downloading for one mp3 via kazaa: butterfly - crazy town
And having to leave the PC on all night to download a trial for a game but then finding out the next day it crashed about 20 minutes after you left..

I remember right after the dial-up back with cable Belgium had one of the fastest speeds ever! Every forum I came across and game chats I always had the best ping and highest DL speeds...


Thanks for the Nostalgia hit dude I could go on and on
