I thought I should share with the world the latest developments in my on-going struggle with Eircom. I got a call on Friday from DigiWeb telling me Eircom told them the problem was fixed. I was too skeptical to be optimistic so I asked the nice guy from DigiWeb to stay on the line while I tested the speed. Had it gone up from it’s painful ~400K, nope, it had gone DOWN to about 250K where it was most of the weekend and where it still is now.

Then, as if to really piss me off I got an email from DigiWeb today bragging about how all services have been upgraded and how I now have a 4MB line. Oh if only. I ran another speed test today, below is a commented version of the result.

doesnt is suck

So depressing.
