First off, let me say the I HATE Verizon.  I had no choice, so that's why I have it.  I have the 3 Mbps service and it is VERY slow.  Are there any settings that will give me more speed??

Thanks!

Thanks for the help.  I'm sure there's a rule against using foul language, so I'll keep my thoughts to myself.

I think you will find it was the UNHELPFUL comment you made, nothing to do with LOL!

Really, if you can be of no help, why are you here? just to annoy people?

There is always one.
