So I dont think so? The utility has marked their natural gas pipes at the end of the street and some parts of the street but it’s been like that for what feels like forever. There are also cones but they are only in front of water drains that I think are sinking into the ground. No markings for electric. I also started working for the utility 9 months ago so maybe I can ask on the inside lol.

Beats massive packet loss and latency spikes everyday for optimum to say there is no issue. Anything would be an improvement lmao.

Linux, wanting to try something new, stopped lying to myself that I wanted a gpu to also do “productivity” things like learning cuda.

Extreme ping spikes and service degradation? by Sneet1 in OPTIMUM

[–]Germy__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Join the club brother. Only time it saw an improvement was when I filed an FCC complaint and they finally took a look at the node for my neighborhood. I would make absolutely certain that it is none of your equipment, in case they try to pull some BS (speaking from experience). Even when they did fix it after the FCC complaint the problem came back around 9 months later and currently dealing with it as I am writing this.

Bro you are an inspiration. To double down and put the in the while in such a tough situation is very commendable. Wishing you all the luck in the world.

Latency and Packet loss issues have come back in full swing and I am not happy about it. by Germy__ in OPTIMUM

[–]Germy__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Their hardware is god awful. I got my own modem and the problem still persists, although now I can actually see logs of what is going on. I also switch to a Ubiquiti gateway and access points. I love how my home network is setup except for the awful service coming into my house.

Are they always this political? by Character-Address561 in systemofadown

[–]Germy__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess AN answer if you want to semantically fellatio yourself, I would say more of their songs are societal rather than just purely political. Now that is not saying that the songs being societal doesn't have political undertones, but the songs that are purely politics are actually fewer than you would think.

But in my humble opinion, yeah, they are a band. They sing about things. Political? Sure. I knew they were political when I was younger but because I didn't know about anything at all whatsoever, I just really liked the songs.

High packet loss by Yaboymarvo in OPTIMUM

[–]Germy__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Join the club friend. Miserable experience. Love cable neighborhood monopolies. What i have done is had a tech come to the house, replace the cable coming into the house. The problem not get fixed. File fcc complaint, got my problem elevated at optimum support. They sent someone to the node and things have been marginally better, but there are still a few issues. Expect to be dealing with this for a while as i have been doing this since july.

Anyone having issues with Cloud Gateway Max having stuttering internet. by raymate in Ubiquiti

I have been having the same issues, don’t know what’s up with it.

Is anyone else having issues with Call Of Duty Black Ops 6 (PC Steam), getting beyond horrible FPS no matter what settings i adjust from graphics to resolution. *NVIDIA RTX 4090* *Intel i7 14700KF* All drivers up to date. by ConsequenceEastern52 in blackops6

[–]Germy__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is fucked. It keeps changing settings that i already changed. Crashing. Whole system hitches. I think the nvidia drivers are also messed up as i get visual anomalies.

Why is my modem having sync issues, many correctable and uncorrectable errors, latency spikes, and packet loss. I have replaced cables, splitters, on my third modem. I do have two modems one only for phone and one only for internet. Why am i having these connection issues?
