Our local cable company was sold to Comcast. Consequently, our internet service will also be with Comcast. This transition will take place at the end of the month. In the mean time, out internet service is with the old company which is Sirus.

Now, Sirus is no longer interested in supporting their customers as they will soon be out of here. So, our internet service is really really bad.

Of course, it has always been slow. And even though Sirus claims to have a speed of a meg, in reality, it is less than 100K. And some times it is more like 20k, which is slower than dial up.

But, besides being slow, lately it is just unreliable. Our connection crashes several time a minute. And, on some days, it is almost impossible to use. Even as I blog, I must save my postings several times a minute as I never know when my connection will fail.

But, I only have a few more days until the new company takes over.  And if push comes to shove, I can always use the WiFi at the local coffee shop.
