An Ol' Broad's Ramblings

MAJOR Server Issues

Welp, we’re gonna kiss WildBlue g’bye!  It turns out they don’t much care for folks who actually use their computers….A LOT!  Since there are 3 people using the internet on a regular basis (one of them listening to the ‘radio’) and they only allow us just so much broadband usage per 30 days, no matter how ridiculous the price the charge, we’re going to switch to DSL.
Odds are, posting will be on a very limited basis for the next few days.  I honestly don’t think a page should take 10 minutes to load, even on dial-up.  GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

    I was with Wildblue for 18 months, but I have to ask why anyone would use them if they had the choice of DSL?

    I had wildblue or dial-up, that’s the only reason I was with them (now on cable at 4mB in a new location)…

    Good luck on dsl :)

    Heh. Well, like you, we had a choice…dial-up, or WildBlue. I tried the dial-up for a month or two…lost some hair over that. :) One month after we signed the contract, we got a notice that DSL was “now being offered in your area”. sigh… Contract is up in two months…we’ll have BOTH till then. :)
