Just came back up a few minutes ago, ironically just as the Verizon tech got on the line after a long hold.   ::)

We were out for about 90 minutes, worked with Verizon Tech support - he didn't see an area wide outage, but it seems like there must have been. We're above the school.

If you can not get Charter an alternative is Wild Blue satellite. They are partners with Dish, but you can get the service on its own.   I am getting 12 meg down and 3 meg up.

Thought I'd mention that Verizon came through a few weeks ago and somehow hooked up DSL for us. Been hectic, hence the delay in thinking to post this.

It was kind of like an episode of "The Twilight Zone" and I am still in disbelief that it is on, but it is.

Anyone else have any luck getting service?

Mine has been awfully slow today. I just did the speed test and it came out:  Ping = 41ms; Download = 1.28Mbps; Upload = .38Mbps.  What do you think about my speed?  Do you think I should call Verizon?

Is anyone else having issues with Verizon?  Especially the last 2 days. 
I work off of my computer and this isn't good.

Thanks for your replies.

Asked this earlier but it's disappeared.

Anyone having issues with Verizon Internet?   Mine slows to almost nothing between 7AM and 10AM today and yesterday. 

Thanks

Try resetting your internet modem.

Use SpeedTest before and after to see if it really helped (some websites download slowly and are not an indication of your home speed).

Note that your fastest speed will be if your computer is connected directly to the internet modem. It will slow slightly on a wired network and a little more on a wireless network.

If it is still slow call Verizon, I use GetHuman.com for no nonsense numbers.

My internet speed seems awfully slow.  My SpeedTest came out to:  Download = 2.09 Mb/s, Upload = .73 Mb/s & Ping = 58ms.  Is this on par with what the rest of you are getting or am I slower than most of you?  I'm starting to think that there's acorns in the switch box ;-)

Just letting you know that the Verizon Internet icon is red on the modem, hence Internet service has been out at my place at Spruce and Lark for almost 4 hours. After a very frustrating hour on the phone w/Verizon, (is there anything else?) was told a service ticket would be submitted and ETA of up and running would be 24-48 hours. Thanks to the Co. of SB Library system for their functioning Internet and public wi-fi access or I wouldn't be able to write this.

Following up on earlier post. Verizon did have my Internet service restored by 6pm tonight, which was approx. 6 hrs. after the outage v. the 24-48 "forecast." Still no reason given for the outage. A serious relief. sagespirit
