Re: [Plug] @home -Reply


So I think that basically to boil it all down when you sign up w/ one of these services you could easily get burned bad, but you could also get a great connection. Did you hear about that guy who had criminal charges filed against him because of incompetant organizational red tape fouling up when he got his cable modem?

I use Suburban@home, and was in the pilot group for my area, so I have
noticed a nominal decrease in speed, as more users have jumped on the
pipe.  I was informed when the service was installed that the pipe had
been throttled back to half capacity at the start of the pilot, so that as
usage increased, they would re-open the pipe to accomodate, and the
pilot would not notice any difference from an increasing customer base.

I was on last night, and had no problems.

Anyone out there having problems with @home tonight?
When I ping www.home.com I am getting latency of 700 - 1000 ms.

I just started this service.  Are people happy with it?
