johanson Posted December 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Gosh I remember the good old days some 10 to 15 years ago here in Ajijic where when it rained, our internet would regularly go out. These days though it almost never goes out. and yes at 7:20 PM you guys show 0.03 inches of rain. I love the rain, as long as it does it at night, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floradude Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 For me SHAW always goes out when it rains hard. Last evening it just blinked a few times. The thunder sounded nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giltner68 Posted December 4, 2016 Report Share Posted December 4, 2016 Well Pete, as you know, Riberas is the red headed step child here and so we are always last in line - ha. It eventually got to us, all good things come in time. I'm on a WiFi up here and my tower is on a low mountain closeby and if there is lightning anywhere within 15 miles it takes out that station. By comparison Brad & Mary's Telmex connection for ChapalaWeather rarely goes down. It's been raining up here for 3 days and we have one more to go and then the real fun, the forecast is for 28 degrees Thurs night, it's that time of year.

johanson Posted December 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 Weird I ran four ping tests the first and third try gave me a D and the second and F Yet the fourth test gave me a great grade Weird Oh and I gave up paying 599 and now pay 389 pesos per month which gives me a 9.996 down according to my modem or somewhat less according to speedtest as shown below. Apparently it's almost impossible to get much faster in my neighborhood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkshawn Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 crappy? Crappy is the 5 weeks of intermittent internet service, repeated calls to 01.800.123.222, 3 visits from telmex to check service, 4 maybe 5 visits to Telmex in Ajijic, 2 replacement modems. Speed is fine when it is available! Now we are really off topic! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 Ah, okay, but the way you worded it, there was nothing about the Internet service, just the support phone system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
