Get Faster Internet due to tricking your ISP

I'm not really interested in the leak here, but I just wanted to share my two cents on internet speeds and fooling ISPs.

A method which I know to have worked in the past was to tell the ISP that you internet is just extremely slow and ask them to try to "boost the signal."
My ISP is Cogeco Cable and they fell for it right away. The next thing I knew, my speed was slightly fast, not very much faster, but it was still worth it.
If your ISP is ripping you off with slow internet, just contact them to "boost the signal." They are able to do it from their computers and you just might get lucky.

Of course this will not work if you already have maximum speed, but for cable connections, I know that it is possible.

The way that cable works is that your signal is split amongs all of the houses receiving from the same output box in your neighbourhood.
The way that DSL works is that your internet is 100% your's, BUT the connection becomes weaker the further away you are from your ISP's main server building.

It's really a matter of having the ISP not rip you off for what you're paying them, because they will try this, I can guarantee that.

So that was my little bit of information that I wanted to share about ISPs and connection speeds.
I hope you enjoyed it and learned something new from it.
