One thing Cable And Wireless is known for is consistent inconsistency. Since about 9:00 this morning, C&W’s throughput has not been worth a flip. Normally my mornings are pretty good and the afternoons degrade.
I admit, I am probably a heavier user than most in David. I like my music and I get it over the [...]
