 Got new internet!
 So our cable company, Cable One, has been steadily increasing our cable bill over the last few months. It's crept up from around $150 to $220. When we asked them about the $70 increase, they had no idea. So, we switched. F*CK em. Grande is our new provider, and it's faster, hell yeah. Also, no monthly bandwidth cap, we can use all we want! Cable one capped us, bah. Took all of that junk back to em today, yep yep yep.

 Re: Got new internet!
Lucky you
Cableone dominates Fargo...and what sucks is that i am about 10 blocks away from city lines where a more local and superior cable firm operate.
So for now i deal with a local and decent dsl firm...slow but worth it
F*CK cableone

Its also only 70$ a month to ^.^ At 50mbs you should have cap, you may not notice because ether you were grandfathered if you've had them for ages or you don't notice it because data is only counted towards the cap during 8am-12am or so. And to give you perspective I can get 100mb/s from a local provider cable company for 100 bucks compared to your 50mb/s for 70. No Cap. Cableone is Jew

 Re: Got new internet!
lol Greatness, was that a clean test with nothing but that one webpage running or were you torrenting gay porn again? Here's mine, with nothing being downloaded or uploaded besides the necessary stuff to run the test:  It took me 18 hours to download Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, which is under 700mb and I tried downloading Windows 7 Home Premium x64 from Digital River and it timed out after 1.5gb, which took a day.

 Re: Got new internet!
 I pay for 30mbits down and 5mbits up, so they are giving me what I pay for. Can't wait for Google Fiber to start rolling out though, internet providers will start shitting their pants. http://fiber.google.com
