(209 posts)password access to my internet connection. Everything was fine for a while until my super speed internet started acting like I was on dial up. Some days it was what I called a hamster wheel crawl. I was paying for high speed but getting walking speed.
Some techs were sent over after I complained about the speed. What I found out shocked me. My neighbors were downloading movies all day and night. The tech said my connection was using so much bandwidth it was incredible.
I had to change my password and get the neighbors off or I was going to be charged more for all that usage.
What made me angry was my neighbor never bothered to tell me she had 3 other people living there and they were all doing their thing on my connection. When I cut them off, they got cable and satellite.
I think they just wanted free internet. I am locked down now.
