the phone company recently worked on all the lines down my road (5 miles lots of houses). When you pick up the phone and call is get alot of backgrond noise and static for the fist minute then it magically clears up. My parents live 1/2 mile down the road they arehaveing the same problems. I called ameritech complained about the line noise. they called me back 5 min later and said you lines are just fine no static and refused to even send a repair man to investagate. My Internet connections before the work was 33.6 now i struggle to get 26.4 or 24.4 and i cant paly my games at all now online. my ping went from 260 to 1100 to 1400 becouse of all the lost packets. My parent's also reported thier internet was very! slow!
