I too have been having trouble with Com-Link for about 6 months. During the week the speeds are OK but even with that sometimes the latency is awful. So much so that it is difficult to stream netflix or mlb.com even when the speeds should be acceptable.

I finally got sick of complaining with no resolution and I tracked down the email address of the CEO. He got back to me and told me that the company underestimated the usage at the lake (no kidding). He explained to me that they were using outdated equipment from Windstream, and that they were trying to get more up to date gateways to AT&T backbone or something like that. I don't remember exactly. He said it should be repaired in 60 days or so (great, there goes the summer using it).

Every night on thurs thru Mon, my speeds deteriorate to less than dialup. I am out of luck if I want to stream a baseball game or a movie. Sometimes the latency triples and quadruples. Was thinking of switching to Windstream DSL but after the CEO told me that they were hopping on the internet using Windstream, no way I'm going to switch one problem for another.

Just crappy service all around.
