Really?

Because I see a great deal of condescension and mockery in Liam's words. Given that he initiated the thread, with a flamebait-style post, he's only receiving responses in a similar tone... and I fail to see how anyone responding in kind is at fault.

There are more mature ways to express dissastisfaction with a product than Liam employed. Dropping a firebomb into a forum mostly filled with advanced, dedicated users of the product is asking for a fiery response. That's common sense.

EDIT: Liam1, there's an aggression in your posts that isn't necessary, especially the first one. That's the essence of my point. As for Geneven, he's s decent guy who seems to try to find decency in everyone, so don't get too pumped over his comment. He and I have disagreed over the rudeness of others here before... ( Geneven).

It loads in 2 seconds for me on a 5Mbps connection. See, this is where the abject bashing is pointless: people can and do have different experiences.

If I were you, I'd look into my router. Going from Verizon's provided router for my FIOS service to a Netgear MIMO router improved tablet web browsing performance considerably.
