stephbgTired of at least 5 days of continuous poor connection speed I finally girded my loins to call 3 technical support to find out if it was just me. The good news is that there's a known coverage fault in the local area, it's been escalated, and that they're working on the problem. The bad news is I was offered a discount for the next six months which makes me think it's not about to get better soon. YouTube is off the agenda for a while. Again.
We have bad landlines here (no ADSL and scratchy dialup), and the mobile coverage is laughable, so this doesn't surprise me particularly. The TV reception is OK but not flawless. Next stop: satellite dish. Or tin cans with string. I could borrow Dad's ham radio gear...
As time goes by and the problems seem to get worse I can't help but wonder what this isolation is doing to the real estate value of Sector 7.
