access

After I have incorporate some status information about my Internet
speed using Geek Tool, I can easily monitor the provider's status.
Wow... These guys definitely have some issue on some of their server
farms. As we are on dynamic IP address assignment just like
everywhere in the world. We were randomly assigned an external server
to surf. You would figure once you are connected, you stay on that
server. No so.

The provider switched us in mid-stream of surfing! Ridiculous. It
bumped you and we have to re-connect to another group of servers. I
have found that, I get better speed on the 58.37.xxx netowrk.
Yesterday, we were bumped to the 128.xxx network which was just slow.
On that server at most we were getting about 0.5Kb/sec for foreign
websites and 250Kb/sec for in-country access. Umm... Where's that
1.5M download speed we paid for?

I suspect that was only a lie. With the 60th anniversary celebration
of c0Mm!e life style, more restrictions will be placed on these
equipments. Choke, choke.....
