This extremely slow internet connection in my country (I swear, I am not exaggerating) is starting to make me go crazy! I just really hope something can be done with this soon. Then again, better than no connection at all.
How's the internet speed in you country?

Yes, the cost depends on your internet speed. Ours though is the fastest internet plan for one household, and still it sucks sometimes. I am hoping to upgrade it soon because just this month, a better modem was introduced.

Yes, I hope it does. Internet has become a significant part of people's lives and internet providers should provide better services. We do pay quite a lot for this, you know.

@JeeyanDee I'm sure you do. We pay a lot as well. If we're going to pay a lot, then we should be getting good service.

@dodo19 Yes we really should. What's worse,we got our connection from the fastest internet provider of my country! This is just plain crazy.

This happens when the climate is not good and when it rains the connection is worst

Well, I am happy for you. Sometimes it's ok here, but there are times it's just so irritating.

@CookieMonster46 I would try to turn the modem off, then turn it back on after a while. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

@JeeyanDee Are you from the PHilippines too? I heard our President is nudging those companies to give what we are due - to make internet connection better and faster. hopefully it happens the soonest.

Yeah it really sucks. These internet providers really must give the service that we deserve.

@Yadah04 I hope something is done soon enough, but I'm not having my hopes up on that. With all these problems and controversies surrounding the government, I'm not really sure much attention will be given on that for quite some time.

Mine is 100mbps but there is 200mbps and up to 1gbps but the latter is very expensive.

Ugh. The fastest speed available for one household is 5mbps only. I am hoping to upgrade it soon though because a new modem has been introduced just this month.
