Magic Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Has the internet been struck by another slowdown, is something wrong with my computer, or has my provider lowered my cap??? Testing on several sites, my speed was roughly a pitiful 400 kb/s when I usually get around 1,300 kb/s. What's wrong? Why has my internet slowed down so much? My provider is SBC Pacific Bell ADSL 1500/128. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HammerSlammer Posted March 11, 2003 Share Posted March 11, 2003 Have you been to DSL reports to see if anyone else is having probs with that provider? http://www.dslreports.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
