My (ATT/Yahoo)High Speed DSL has slowed waaaaaaay down since Christmas and I can't find a reason why. I noticed that AT&T has launched their U-Verse Internet-based TV service on a much broader coverage area since then.:(
.
Are there any other DSL subscriber's out there that has noticed a slowdown in speed?:helpme:

I've noticed it has slown down a lot. I even have to re-boot sometimes because the computer will lock up.

I noticed that AT&T has launched their new TV service, which is web-based, more than a few weeks ago.

You might have a virus though V because a slower connection won't do what your computer does.:(

I thought so too about the Virus. It's a new HP computer and scan it regularly with McAfee Plus. It hasn't showed a virus but, usually 7 or eight spyware which it removes. Sure hope I don't have a virus.:(

I just got my ATT Yahoo DSL about a week ago, so the speed that it has right now is what I'm used to. It is not that bad, but I guess it used to be faster.

I hate to hear that....it's my best shot at getting high speed out here.

Oh well...it has GOT to be better than my dial-up!!

I test my Internet connection regularly and I now have a 184 kbs download speed and a 301 UPLOAD speed? What the heck is going on?????:confused: :confused: :mad:
U-Verse looks pretty decent but I'm not switching to that, I'll just get Roadrunner if my connection keeps messing up.:eek: :doh:

I'm not going to complain because 2 weeks ago I had nothing.
