We live within a half mile of a major area hospital, which generally means a T3 level service...now, who knows, who cares...*L*
Our net service is spectacular....wired locally, so our wireless within is great.
Just 'stupid lucky', I guess. *S*
Back in Houston, we lived about the same distance from a major software company, also T3 when it was rare. We'd get calls about cable service; the one's that Knew what we had wished us well. Those that didn't got told to 'go ask your sup what a T3 line Is' and get back to us'. *click*
They never did.
Got spoiled disgusting. Entire complex had a LAN created by the management (a real geek); some tenants were early 'day traders' (you could tell the good ones by their car), some 24/7 'gamers' that slept on the floor, only there for the low latency.
Had a Fantastic trove of music files...10K+, pick your genre'.
It got busted. A third of the tenants moved....*sigh*
We did as well later, but for different reasons....
