I just tried a few pages here and it's quite zippy, no problem .... around here the first problem i think of is Telus, used to be called BC Tel, and the equivalent of your Sprint there ... my ISP has had problems with them every second week for months, almost always during trading hours, once for the last half hour of the day, 12h30-13h00 pacific, very frustrating

Matt, this was supposed to be humour, but i guess i shouldn't try such a thing on the thirteenth of the months - http://www.investorshub.com/boards/read_msg.asp?message_id=415312
... but the part about changing that to W.i.t.G.W.N., that was serious ... if you think it's a good idea? ... btw, contrary to Bob's considered opinion, i was smoking nothing other than a fine-cut fire-cured Halfzware Shag from the Nederlands .... costs a little more perhaps, but guaranteed to make krispy kreme of your lungs

Which means Sprint was screwing around again.

Seems like a consensus here...

Sprint... NOT free and NOT clear!

The servers were barely breathing when I checked.

Barely breathing as in almost dead or as in not having to exert themselves at all? Big difference, dude, and it helps me determine whether I need to be pointing a finger at myself or if I need to be giving some heaping earfuls to others tomorrow.

But my packets to trace the route to the servers were dying. Which means Sprint was screwing around again.

That's a tough one. If it were the ISP, me and a lot of the people at it go way back and when I chew butts over there, things happen. Sprint is an entirely different story. And it's part of why we dropped two PCS accounts with them last month.
