im just wondering if any AOL users on here have had a very bad download speed last phew days, im on 8meg, i usually get 700kb/s download speed,

but for last phew days ( Early hours between 1am-8am have been fine :S) i have been getting max download speed of 60kb/s i have done multiple speed tests and all are very bad.

im not going to ring aol just yet as every time i ring them i end up very very angry as the lack of common sense and inteligence most of them plonkers have:mad:

be good if you could use

Speedtest.net or Internetfrog.com to have a check ;)

My result
Download - 571 kbps

but Should be around - 7800 kbps

i wondered why i was getting high ping and disconnected on cod4 ! god dam, i have been with aol for 6 or 7 years never had this problem so thats why im wondering if others have the same problem

Thanks again

Oh lordi, i forgot i made this thread :p so ive been monitoring, and for the last week now i have been getting around 60kb/s from 7:30 - 10:30 EVERY DAY after and before is perfect 750kb/s

just a bit of a coincidence that the best gaming time is between 6-10 :(!!!!!! TYPICAL

strange that ive been on aol for years and years and never noticed.....

the fair usage policy is a load of absolute SH**, does my head in, your paying 30pound a month to get 60kb/s at the Main online gaming time of the whole day!, and aol advertises there high package as a '' For Gamers ''

and i go and play bf2 and cod4 online at them times and it literally is unplayable and i have played at them times for the last year and it hasn't been like this until the last week, so it must have only just started.
