So after Smallville Season 5 finale, you should disconnect and go to sleep.

Does this mean we're finally gonna see the long awaited upgrade of DSL speed?

We can only wait and hope.

Considering how inconsistent the service has been of late, maybe it's just to bring service back up to stable :p Otherwise I know they've been installing new meters at residents all over, maybe it's a cut over for that system.

new metering system? what is that about?

W1nTry · « **Reply #6 on:** May 11, 2006, 08:42:27 AM »

Ok, hear the scene. TSTT is installing a new metering system that will be on the customer premise (ala the lamp post of inside of outside wall, etc). It connects back to a box installed every other 3-6 poles. Basically it will allow them to offer Broadband, traditional voice (well more likely digital voice), metering and even HDTV (Woot!!!) well at least that is what the tech told us when they were installing it. Also since it's at the edge of the customer premise, you will have the option to NOT have them install the phone lines thus you pay NO RENTAL FEE. However you will then be responsible to anything that happens on your premise. So if yuh doh wanna pay the rental and yuh phone stop woking cause yuh mango tree fall and buss down yuh line runing to yuh house, FIAH, yuh fix it yuhself. But it's cool to have the option. So yeah, DSL/phone/HDTV/onsitemetering, daz what dey doing now.

Spazosaurus · « **Reply #9 on:** May 11, 2006, 12:54:21 PM »

Win, what is this metering about. What is it and what does it do? Also did you ask the tech about a possible increase in speed? So the installation has already begun do they interrupt your service? Also, your connection unstable? I mine is always up and running very good.

TSTT DSL has been REALLY inconsistent lately ALL over the island. It better be b/c of upgrade cause if its just their network failing and they eh know why (which tends to be the case) i'd be most annoyed (if not surprised).

Netizen1 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 12, 2006, 07:51:26 PM »

Didn't this happen last time they did maintenance? The slow performance...

The net really was not fun at all... but at least http traffic is ok...
