The ISP listed in the pictures is the client's, not the host's. And I've been much happier with consistency and network stability of my FiOS connection than I was with Comcast :-p

Unfortunately around here everything is CRAP, horrible pings, traceroutes sent to the UK before they make it to Dallas (6 hour drive to the south) sometimes, couldn't even stream Netflix properly with a "20 MB" pipe. All because the one local cable company (Mediacom) has overloaded every node in town and i swear that AT&T sends every new recruit in their network/routing department here to train and they let them experiment live on the main hub for these parts.

BUT, Mediacom's 50 MB connection is on a whole new DOCSIS 3.0 network that's separated from their thousands of shitty 5-20 MB connections. So to get on a "clean" network i have to pay through the nose. And DSL here maxes at around 6 MB. Literally the worst place in the world for internet service around here.

But i shouldn't complain since i could be in BFE where they just have dial-up still.
