Annoyed

by Randi

Sorry - I’m trying to figure out what’s going on with my new internet provider - see - we live in a small town and our only option was satellite. Now I’m discovering that if you’re looking at YouTube videos, its considered downloading. Once you download 200 MB worth of stuff (which you can get to quickly), you get substandard dial-up speeds.

Does anyone have any power over ComCast or Verizon because I’d REALLY like them here right now….

    I completely understand the only thing available to my mother where she works is T1-T3 lines have you looked into that?
