impro$ement in internet access speed. 4e internet bandwidth was within my e!pectations
initially# but after a few months# $ery website ' $isited started to crawl li"e a snail. Your
house&call engineer $isited and chec"er my broadband wiring and assured me that
e$erything was normal. 4e said the problem ' fa$ed was probably due to a sudden surge
internet traffic.
About 2 months ago# ' called to complain again# only to get answer that the company was
upgrading some internet networ"ing de$ices. ' was patient and waited for the
impro$ement# but the situation got e$en worse.
