This has already been posted.

AOL are moving to talktalk servers.

[samsaBEAR]

oh right
has anything been said about how long its gonna take?

[Recursion]

Probably a few days, or weeks knowing AOL.

ive been having slow internet/downloads for a couple of weeks, and today my internet just stopped for about 10 minutes, so im hoping it'll be done soon.

AOL are moving all their uk servers to poal telecom which is owned by talk talk.

This is why on speedtest many AOL users have Opal Telecom displayed as their ISP.


Thank goodness im switching to virgin this saturday

YAY, IM DOWN TO 400KBPS

GO ME

the thing is with AOL, i dont mind getting slower download speeds. i have no need to have an 8mbps connection and download stuff in minutes. as long as i have a fast enough connection to download a film in about a day, im not bothered.
sure, being able to download that in an hour or so would be nice, but im not going to go out of my way to secure a faster connection

Lol. If they say 2 weeks add another 10 onto it.
If you are an AOL customer you should have recieved an email about this in Feb, i think it was when i got mine. Saying that they were migrating and to expect disruption.

Well I usually get 5mb/s download from AOL with 1mb/s upload.

But today its a PATHETIC:
