THIS IS INSANE!
it started to go off like this about a week ago. Before that, it was actualy good, considering that we use sat. i had about 750ms to 850ms what is acceptable. Now, it's back to the same problem. Sentech, you need to be able to walk before you can run, why do u continue to accept new users and dont upgrade your bandwidth? I think it's time we get a garanteed speed on your connections, i say, for a 128kb/s connection, you MUST garantee 128kb/s. I really dont care about what your excuses are, blah blah blah. we want to receive what we are paying for, or, dont adv that you have a 128kb/s service, just adv that you have a service that is slower then pots dial-up, full of latency problems and frequent timeouts rendering anything but browsing inacessible. EVEN FREAKING BROWSING IS SLOW!
