wtf my internet is retarding

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Yah, do a traceroute to some of the sites and you can see there are some probs with some of the hops. It's been slow today for me too. Due to MyDoom, maybe?

Wouldn't retarding mean that it was slowly becoming retarted?

Here's What www.dictionary.com says
To keep delaying; to continue to hinder; to prevent from progress; to render more slow in progress; to impede; to hinder; as, to retard the march of an army; to retard the motion of a ship; -- opposed to accelerate.


On a more serious note, my internet is relatively slow today.

My internet speed is fine. Long live the 56k modem!

Mine is sometimes very slow (1 - 1½ minutes) and sometimes über-fast (2 - 4 seconds, to load a web page.)

Post Sat Feb 07, 2004 6:13 pm

Me too. This morning, especially, was pretty bad. It took me almost a full minute to get my chosen home page to load. Later, it took almost as long to post a reply on TLR .

Same here, midwest, Earlier it was goin REALLY slow. Of course that's slow to my web, which averages around 630kbps, on a bad day. It was horrible earlier, but now its working better than normal.

@Esqy:

56k modem. I remember you mentioning that this is how you cruise the web some time ago. Is that only at college or are you also relegated to it at home as well?
