Sorry for the revive. I just did mine and got this.


This is what my provider promises me:

Download: 25 Mb/s
Upload: 3,5Mb/s

So, i am getting only 10% of what they sold me. Can't i like sue them for theft? Becouse this is starting to really annoy me since i often get disconnects that last a few seconds and crappy ping for no reason that i can see.


How much is the difference between what was promised you and what you get in reality with you guys?

So, time has past and so has technology, I am still on the same type of plan, different location and provider though.

Pretty damn happy with this. It slugged down to 10 Mb/s a few months ago but it seems they finally got their shit together at my provider. I, or rather at the moment my parents, pay for 50 Mb/s so I guess that's nice.

This comes rather handy. About a month ago I witnessed some significant loss in download speed. Seems it is stil there.







I guess I'll do a phonecall on monday. That isn't DSL6000 now, but DSL2000.

I usually imagine my own sounds with it, like `tjunk, tupdieyupdiedee` aaa enemy spotted, ratatatataboom

Turns out they're sending me a new modem. They say my Speedstream 5100 I received 11 years ago is outdated.

I'm just not sure whether that is the truth or just another trick to avoid doing any work on their part. Hopefully it won't be a Fritzbox or any other shiny new stuff that doesn't let you do any ajustments, phoning home once per day for failing updates, liking to contact the NSA and being the #1 target of the average scriptkiddie.

How can it be that it shows me a download rate of 10.41mb while I never can go beyond 1.3mb/s on actual downloads... 10k is my theoretical one and it measures it... now I wander where the other 9k mb are going.  ::)

Damn computer noob.  ;D

A side note: I love how it tells me that the connection is crap and this is even more hilarious knowing that I pay like 40 eur per month for this connection.

Update:
Just received an Eltek A7100-I ADSL modem. Actually it is a router-modem, while the previous one was a bridge modem. My fears came true. Always disliked those router modems that have only castrated function. Now I gotta find out, how to make it work with my conventional router attached in between computer and modem. *sigh*

Bow before my mighty connection! This is the best we can get here atm... And no, I'm not living in a small rural village. Rather a city of over 30.000
Quite a number of villages around us (<2000 inhabitants) can have connections more then 20x times our speed.

I really hate Telekom.

Since this topic popped up:

I used to have 40/10M broadband, but my contract was fixed-duration for 2 years. Some weeks ago I got call from my ISP as my contract was getting expired soon. They asked if I was happy with cost of my connection. I answered truthfully, that I have nothing to complain about that 36€ fee, as at time it was cheapest (for that speed) there was for me. After saying that, I got offer: Monthly fee lowered to 35€, internet speed upped to 100/10M and samsung galaxy tab 3 with limitless 4G connection.

So, here it is  :P
