Bad Internet Connection Lately

Over the past few weeks i have noticed that my broadband connection has become very prone to turning on and off. It is really beginning to get on my nerves. I could load a web-page and then read the page or watch a video that is on that page, but then i would go to click onto another page and then get the ‘Page cannot be found’ message which indicated my bloody internet has gone down!

I would then have to wait for the router to reboot which takes a few minutes and then hope that it will stay connected for a while, but most of the time it will disconnect within the next hour!

I have tried so many different things to get this fixed and nothing has worked, i have phoned up Eircom many times to try and get it fixed but they say they dont know what causes it to happen and once before when i rang up the man said sure why would you want the internet to be working at 2am! And i kind of just thought, first of all it is none of your business why i want to be on the internet at that time, and secondly i am paying for a service and it is not being provided the way it should be, and they wont even offer a discount on the months broadband because of the inconvience that they cause by not having the broadband working all the time :(

I replaced the router at one stage and still had the same problem so i am out of ideas! I know other people are expierencing problems with eircoms broadband lately, i think it is time i ring them up again and keep doing it until they do something about it!

    I have had problems with eircom in the past. Now not many but the router did stop working a few times and it is very frustrating when you are using the internet to get work done you should ask for money off because of the loss of service….

    No matter where I’d go or what service I used, I was having the same slow internet problems. Fortunately, one of my friends told me about Hughes Net satellite service. Although, I was a bit hesitant initially, but eventually I signed up for the service through a reseller called Infodish (http://www.infodish.com/). Now, I can download videos and music in no time, even during peak hours. It’s great. I’d recommend them to everyone who is tired of slow internet connection.
