Anyone seeing a drastic decrease in speed/pings this afternoon? This morning I was ~ 1300/500 kpbs with 150 ping, and now am at 86/81 with 600 ping. I'm guessing someone is working on the network. I'm in Little Rock, Arkansas.
I've ruled out my MBR-1000 router by disconnecting it and plugging the modem directly into the PC.
Thanks! |

| Either Sprint is doing something to the network or my tower has gone insane. Pings and speeds are all over the place. Ten minutes ago I averaged a ping of 140 to Yahoo; now it's over 800. Speeds are highly erratic too. This may have been occuring for awhile and I'm just noticing it since adding my router and obsessively checking performance. |

| Same problem west of Benton. If this happens much more this device may find its way back to the Sprint store from whence it came. |

| Sprint is just signaling you that you spend too much time on the internet and you should get up, go outside and take a walk in the sunshine...or snow as the case may be. |

If that were the case then i'd have to say byebye to ole Sprint (if there were actual alternatives haha) because I don't have time to delay web projects due to my internet connection.  |

Thanks. I was hoping this wasn't the same issue. I didn't read too deep into the other thread, but are users experiencing both slow pings and slow downloads? Some of my downloads yesterday slowed from 1300 kpbs to <100.
I'll call and report it after work. |

I'm between LR, Benton and Bryant (close to Avilla). I wonder if we're on the same tower? |
