WTF!! dialup in the year 2010??

i cant believe it, i just saw a tv commercial for dialup!
"America's broadband users can save $16 billion a year and save $300 a year individually by switching to netzero dialup for 9.99$ a month. call 1800netzero or go to netzero.com"
i wouldnt go back to 56k dialup if YOU PAY ME 9.99$ a month!

i have 1000,000,000 mb/s broadband lol

I don't understand why anyone would go back to dialup if they were on DSL, cable, FiOS, or any other high-speed connection. I remember dialup as being absolute hell. You couldn't call anyone while they were online, or you would get a busy signal. Waiting for a picture or site to load would take forever. And all that waiting was just so you could see animated GIF backgrounds and listen to embedded midi while reading blinking text on someone's geocities page. The only person I know with dialup is my uncle, but he has to have it because he's in too rural a town for cable or DSL.
I remember my mom (just to mess with us) would sometimes intentionally pick up the phone while my sister or I was online, and dial random buttons so I'd lose my connection and have to reconnect the modem .

here is a video of netzero, (not the shorter version i saw on tv commercial)

we all get fater speeds using our phones and internet sharing lol

Yeah, I saw a commercial for some company who was advertising their services as being faster than "just" dial up, recently. I just was like, um.... okay? Dial up has not been relevant for a couple of years now. My dad, who lives in a town with a population of 300 (that was as of 2000), has DSL!

I just P!55ED my pants..

Slow 4g speed

I've tried the Charge and Thunderbolt along with the Revo, and for some reason the 4g on the Revo is less that half the speed of the other devices using the Speedtest app. Someone on another forum commented about this as well. Do you folks think this is a radio issue that can be fixed? Otherwise, I'll be taking the Revo back.
Thanks!

What is your dl speed because in all honesty any dl above 3 MB/sec is overkill. Here in SE TX mine avgs. 8 down/5 up. Try another server it does vary greatly. Remember it is a burst speed and is dependant on how many users are on a tower plus other factors beyond your control. A true OC-3 speed of 20 down /20 up runs about $20,000 a month for a business.

I'm always between 8 - 11 down and 4 - 6 up out here in Charleston, SC

Average 4G speed around my home is 8-12 dwn, 5-9 up.

Verizon probably has run their own fiber to their towers... and they are probably running OC-12 or 24 lines.
Hehehe... had to block the isp, as we are our own... That is shared with 1500 other users...

4G LTE in Milwaukee is VERY fast.
Near the airport, strong constant 20-30mbps and 4-9mbps up.
I have yet to venture to Madison yet or Wisconsin Dells, as those are the other two major city's in WI to have LTE setup.
on a side note, I will say with my first LG which was borked and stuck with the stock shipping software my downloads were some what slower then my new one with the current stock software. 15mbps max on the old software and 30mbps with the new software.

Who else in COLORADO??

I have SERIOUS dreadful speeds with T-Mobile . I usually get 2mbps download and 1 upload. (Yea thats horrible) all around Denver the highest speed I've ever had while on LTE would be 10mbps. I'm seriously thinking about leaving tmobile for VERIZONs badass service. A friend has Verizon and he's speeds are consistent. Check out the screen shot from here at work. It went from bad to absolutely worse. Can't loud crap. And it isn't the ROM fault. Calling T-Mobile won't fix nothing because there techs are seriously retarded. I've tried what I could to no avail. Maybe there's some kind of tool or something I could use. Speeds have been horrible Ever since I got the note 4 and I even pay the extra $20 for what they call "unlimited" I could take my $80 and go with Verizon and pay an extra $40 for TRULY UNLIMITED, EVERYWHERE. I have a phantom netgear router thats 60 Mbps no matter how many people are connected or what they are doing so going from steady 60 to less than 1 its ridiculous I got a fast phone with horrible service. I could have the fastest phone in the world. But under T-Mobile it becomes the slowest!!!

Mobile hotspot Sprint

I tried the Sprint lg g4 mobile hotspot hack, its working but Sprint still sees my data usage which i used 90% already! Is there a way for Sprint not to see my usage? My firmware is zv6 please need help with this

If you root you can use WIFI Tether Router. That is why I never liked this method. But I don't think you will get flagged. Just don't abuse it.
By the way USB Tether works great and is legit. Bluetooth works too but pretty slow.

To clarify the question: are you trying to get unlimited data, as in you don't want Sprint to know how much data you are using on your plan, so you can just pay for 1 GB but have unlimited use?

Yea, I got 6gb Data plan with them I thought the Hotspot hack would allow me to use unlimited data

That's not how it works. This allows you data through your phone up to your cap (then you hit overages). You have to be on an unlimited plan to get unlimited data.

There is absolutely, positively, without a doubt, ZERO way for you to hide your data usage from Sprint.
So long as a device on your account is registering to their network and requesting bandwidth, they're going to know who requested it.
If there were a way to use the network without registering your device, I can almost guarantee you that you wouldn't find the method on these forums. I'm on quite a few forums for reverse engineering, etc and just like with major holes that allow you to activate expensive software without paying for it, the method to do so would be kept a closely guarded secret in Elite forums where you'd have to prove yourself by being in VIP forums and not leaking anything, for a long time or be responsible for discovering hacks/exploits/etc.
When stuff like that is discovered, the more people know and exploit it, the more risky it is that Sprint will notice and patch the hole, or someone will tell a friend that's got a big damn mouth and next thing you know it's all over public forums like these and sprint pushes a network hot fix in less time than it takes the initial thread to have a second page of replies.

[Q] Verizon S8+ WiFi connection slow?

Hello guys,
I have been a long time member of this great community with many devices through the years, but due to being busy with life and work did not get to be the daily lurker around here any more
Sorry if this has been asked many times.
I have Verizon Fios 150/150 at home, and use Verizon wireless router around the apartment. Every wireless device I have (laptops, iPads, wife iPhone) score nice 130-150mbps on my wireless network, only my new S8+ struggles around 30-40 download and 90-100 upload. And downloading apps from Google store is a pain in the rear. On 4G LTE it flies through the downloads..
My device is stock, unrooted and on last AQG4 update.
Is this a common issue with this phone?
My last T-Mobile S5 was way faster on my same speed WiFi.
Thanks guys!

Nope! It should not be a common issue! In fact, I just ran a speed test on mine. I got 94 Mbps down and 35 up. I only have 100 Mbps service though. Are you sure you're using the AC 5 GHz band of your router? If not you may be limited for 54 Mbps.
