AT&T really knows how to rustle a man's jimmies

Recently I decided to buy Batman Arkham City over Steam. Unbeknownst to me it is a 15 GB download. Now this may not seem like a lot to most people (with normal internet), but it took me an entire 2 1/2 days to download it because I HAVE HORRIBLE INTERNET. My maximum download speed is around 150 kb p/s, but prefers to stay at 90-100 kb p/s most of the time. Yet here is the really frustrating part: I'm paying for 2 mb p/s! So if you (the Offtopic Forum) would be so kind as to inform me of a superior internet provider, I would greatly appreciate it. BTW I am currently using AT&T. I've also considered Google Fiber, but that hasn't been released yet.

  • What flavor of AT&T are you on? Their DSL offering? You may want to look into their U-Verse system (if it is available in your area) which is FTTN (Fiber To The Node) or in many cases FTTH (Fiber To The House). I'm on U-Verse and it is a rock-solid system, even though I am at the copper distance limit with my local FTTN installation.
