Help! I'm a girl from silicon valley and I'm not used to such fucking nonsense. What pisses me off even more is that the apartment advertises with one of its big pluses being "fast internet." I have a suspicion it's because I have 3 other roommates who are using it too, but one of them streams all day long, taking up most of the bandwidth. I also think one of the roommates in the other room set up her own router, and she gave us the pw to it, but it's slow as well. Wtf should I do? I can't watch anything on youtube without it buffering every 3 seconds. Should I look into getting my own router? Any suggestions?
You could always pay for a private ISP. Cell phone companies like verizon, sprint, etc, sell satellite internet. I don't know how fast it is though. Setting up your own router wont help if other people are downloading/streaming 24/7. :/ That's the only thing I can think of, unless you switch to a wireless G or N router provided your computer/laptop has an internet card capable of handling that kind of a router. I had my router set to wireless B and G, and last week I switched it to wireless G only and I got another 5 Mbps out of it.
Giggles. Edit: I actually hate your mum jokes but this one is AMAZING: "your mama so fat she downloaded cheats for wii fit" :maha: :maha: :maha:
lmao there's no solution X( I think im gonna complain 2 the front desk ppl about it. Gotta tell my roommates that their thing doesnt make a difference either haha
