You guys are lucky. I pay for 10 megs and consistently get about 3.5, and at night we sometimes don't have the internet for hours. They sent a tech out (their BEST guy so everyone says), and he says sometimes connections are just slow. There's nothing he could do about it.

That's one of the drawbacks of living in a small town; it's cheap as dirt here, but the trade off can sometimes get to you.
Tell them to test the line that runs to your house at its origination point. This should be the point where the main line ends and then splits off to the differant homes/buildings/etc. in your area. If the line is fine at that point but sucks in your house, they need to run you a new line. This is how they discovered my problem.
