Fuuuuuuuuuuu
I'm having internet connection problems at the moment
About two days ago I got home and noticed my internet was down. After a few hrs of rebooting my modem and talking to Virgin over the phone I finally got my internet back up and running. All is good I thought... nope, it's not. I have a 60mbps connection and now i'm getting between 1-5mbps if i'm lucky, bad times.
I call up Virgin again and they make me run all these CMD promts on my PC which led them to conclude that it's a problem with my PC. I thought ok then, i'll try reinstalling Windows.
I reinstall Windows, set it up get all my stuff installed and set all my settings, make a large cup of coffee and think to myself "haha, time to internet."
Nope, connection is still crappy and i'm still getting ~1-5mbps
So Today I had a Virgin Media Engineer round to check things out, he changes all my cables, modem and ethernet cable and still I have a crappy connection.
He then tells me that it's definitely nothing my end, Virgin don't have any idea what is wrong and I have to wait 7-10 days before they can do anything else because they need to monitor my area and my connection.
I can't play BF4 or any other online game, I have to watch Youtube vids in 240p because anything higher takes to long to buffer. I can't stream or download any films or music, basically I can't do anything with my internet apart from browse websites and send emails \o/
One thing I have learned from this is how dependant on the internet I have become, when I am unable to do the things I mainly do it shows how much the internet is part of a modern life style and how much we rely on it.
