I think ISPs are much like any other biz. Last year around this time I
lived w. a friend. He attempted to transfer his Comcast service from
Beaverton to S.E. PDX. It took weeks of intermittent service, phone
calls, techs coming on site, equip swap out, cable repair to get finally
get internet connectivity working reliably. You would think they're the
most incompetent ISP in all the land.
Where I'm living now there's been a short-lived outage or two and some
occasional slowness. Nothing that I wouldn't expect from any other ISP.
We've had more troubles w. Linksys routers and wireless connectivity....
