ATT tech

So this morning while speaking to att tech about my extremely slow internet which has been the cause of my slow download speeds and my inability to watch Downton Abbey correctly. An 1.5 show took me almost 9 hours the other day to finish! I have never had to pause a movie for the internet to catch up that much in my life! So the tech guy was explaining to me in a 5 YEAR OLD terminology or as if he was speaking to a 5 year old about the simply fact that I live to far away from the central office for ATT to do anything about the speed of my internet and that it was just how it was! HOW IT WAS?? Seriously! So after being spoken to like I was a 5 year old I was starting to loose patience with the guy who clearly not an American or even based here, I HAVE SEVERAL college degrees under my belt. Even though I am a stay at home mom currently does not lead to my inability to have a brain as an individual! I understand the whole living far away from the central office or how not everyone in my neighborhood might have att internet as to why att was not wasting their time on making my service better. Which was exactly what he told me over the phone. I HAVE never been so insulted in my life! Well since att doesn't want to waste money and time to make my service better I'll just take my business somewhere else. So fellow bloggers any advice on internet service?
