    For those of you with Uverse fuck off. Seriously I'm so jealous I could rip your heads off.

    I'm on the 100Mbps plan with Suddenstink cable broadband (yeah I know broadband is shared), I get around 80-100 in the day down and 15 up, with a ping around 11ms, at night it plummets to below 10 down and 8 up with a ping in the 20's.

    What the fuck?

    Why at night?

    Don't get it... My bro has Uverse and seems to have issues night and day.

    most with uverse say it sucks. one rule of the interwebs to live by. dont have your cable provider and internet be from the same source.

    We are the last house on the tap and I think we suffer because we share bandwidth with everyone in the neighborhood.

    The farther away from one of those boosting boxes you are the worse your bandwidth.

    That still shouldn't drop me, I'm supposed to get 100mbps, 50 Mbps is enough to run a multiplayer video game, and stream movies with 3 other devices. I think something is wrong with the lines.
