    My internet has been painfully slow for the last few days, and i'm thinking that it could be to do with the weather. Has anybody else been experiencing slow internet speeds as of late?

    With wi-max its always slow...although when its slower than usual it speeds up the normally backwards download speeds for movies etc...might have to go on a spree before the weather picks up.

    Yes, it is the weather.

    The wi-fi waves are freezing as they travel through the air.

    Yep... Just tonight. Has picked up the last hour or so. Before that, almost every site was timing out.

    It was so bad, I ended up watching half an hour of Frontline.

    It was horrendous.
