My internet was acting more reliably for a while, but recently started misbehaving again with frequent disconnections. These are always brief, but it is still quite aggravating to get dropped from games and voice chat all the time. I finally got fed up and made an appointment for Verizon to come and reinstall FiOS. The problem is they don't offer TV in this area (word is our local politicians have a shockingly high bribe floor), so I can't get one of their "triple play" bundle deals. What's bizarre about this is how they quoted me a higher price for internet and phone service than they offer for the triple play! I had to kick and scream and get a supervisor on the phone to get to the point where they were not going to charge me more for two services than they would charge someone else for three. Having successfully negotiated for sanity, now I just have to wait a week for the installation, which will hopefully put my internet issues behind me.
