    Anyone have verizon dsl internet
    Had fios before. worked great. fast

    just moved and fios isn't available yet so had to get verizon triple play

    directtv with dsl and i activated modem today and the fukkin pages take 5 minutes to load

    so the verizon tech support says it can take 6 hours to reach full speed looking for the signal when first activating

    is that bullshit?

                    Get Comcast cable Internet.

                    Your better then this.

                    Dsl watching line moves will cost you some $$$ within 6 months.....just watch. A hiccup or a slow down you'll get smoked.

                    I really thought you where better then this. You went from batting cleanup to 7th in the batting order.

                    Rookie thread here.

                                  Digital subscriber line (DSL, originally digital subscriber loop) is a family of technologies that provide internet access by transmitting digital data over the wires of a local telephone network. In telecommunications marketing, the term DSL is widely understood to mean Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL), the most commonly installed DSL technology. DSL service is delivered simultaneously with wired telephone service on the same telephone line. This is possible because DSL uses higher frequency bands for data separated by filtering. On the customer premises, a DSL filter on each outlet removes the high frequency interference, to enable simultaneous use of the telephone and data.



                                  DSL is just a type of internet connection

                                  personally i cable internet connection

                                  i dont know which one is faster

                                    DSL= 1 pipeline to 1 house. Consistent speed. Antiquated copper wiring can bite you in the ass. Distance from the node also plays a part.

                                    Cable= Bigger pipeline.....But shared. Varied speed depending on neighborhood traffic.

                                    Fiber to the premises (Ex. Most Verizon FIOS)= Best. Best of both words. Doesn't deteriorate over distance like copper/dsl.


                                    BTW.....6 hours seems like bull sh*t.

                                      DSL can take a while to get up to full speed. You are supposed to leave the dsl modem plugged in and on for like a couple days right after you activate it. That's what my modem had written on it when I had dsl. Also, your dsl speed will also be determined by how far you live from the telco office. Cable is much better. If you don't have FIOS, you won't be getting it. Verizon said they are not expanding the FIOS network.

                                        I have FIOS right now, and don't even think DSL is offered around these parts.

                                                Its shot. Internet light on modem out after 4 days of on and off service. verizon tech on phone said nothing else can be done. In my area there is no other pathway to route me thru. Which is fine. I will cancel and get comcast cable and internet but the problem is the 960 dollar penalty directtv is going to try to charge me. Hopefully i can get it worked out.

                                                Fukked up thing is i had no idea dsl was shit. No fukkin clue. I had fios before. Not available in area i moved too. Thought dsl was fine.

In my area there is no other pathway to route me thru. Which is fine. I will cancel and get comcast cable and internet but the problem is the 960 dollar penalty directtv is going to try to charge me. Hopefully i can get it worked out.

                                                  Fukked up thing is i had no idea dsl was shit. No fukkin clue. I had fios before. Not available in area i moved too. Thought dsl was fine.
                                                  So the signal to your home is gone? The modem isn't shot? Has a tech come to you home to test it?

                                                  Sounds like bullsh!t that they can get you back up and running again.

                                                    I dont want to be back up and running. I fukkin want out. Problem is cancelling the directtv side of bundle. Computer showing connected. On techs end showing connected. This after 4 days of on and off service. Ive fukkin had it. Never in my life have i had any type of subpar crap anything. Im not some fukkin jerkoff that gets anything second rate and deals with it. I go first rate with everything. I dont have the time or the patience for this bullshit second rate internet. And again had i known dsl was second rate i would of never gotten it. I had no fukkin clue. Its fukkin ghetto internet. Fukk me

                                                            U have no idea

                                                            I could seriously kill someone right now

                                                            4 days of this bullshit and when i left for work this morning it was working. When i got home it wasn't

                                                            So after killing myself allday i call verizon and get routed thru swat valley pakistan and it takes an hour just to get an american on the phone

                                                            For shits and giggles tonight i might drive to the gas station down the street and hit mohammed over the fukkin head with a sock full of marbles

                                                              I hate Verizon DSL but this is what I've had for many years. Limited options in the area and they refuse to install FIOS.
