lol. It’s probably a DNS problem. They’ve been having a lot of them lately.

Now globe is giving me more reasons to hate it… I can’t view my websites! Both of them! Coincidence? I don’t think so!

I really hate my globelines, but I’m never going back to dial up ever. Baka I’ll try bayantel once my contract expires.

I still remember the agony of downloading something then somebody picked up the phone =_=

Same here, I will never go back to dial up.

I had 33.6 kps dial up speed for a good few years. I ran a cord from the phone outlet in the kitchen to the modem, which I kept tripping over.... Now I have ADSL2+ and a wireless router. I could never go back to dial up... -_- Aaron´s last entry was: Just left the newbie area.

I’ll give you a hint on why their service is crappy sometimes…. It’s the modem XD

Nooo! Globelines I keel you! I hate my 512Kbps connection. Maybe once you get the 4Mb connection, Globe’s service gets better. Not fair!

It is hard to believe how fast the changes have been. Now 90% of the US or a staggering figure like that is on broadband. We need browsers that will convert 1 MB pages to text equivalents for the small percentage of users that is still using slow internet access.
