Lmao. I have 25 Mbps. Let alone 25 Gbps. Thanks Malcolm turnballs
I have fttp and it goes airtight but I pay for the best I can get and still only get 850mbs on a good day.
But 3 years ago I only got 18Mbps so my jump on speed is amazing
What does airtight mean in this context? I've only heard that term in a much different way...
Probably slang.
In Breaking Bad one Tuco said "Tight, tight" while snorting the meth.
So I'll assume this is the next higher level of "tight".
Oh airtight is the next higher level of tight all right lol
Ah my bad, meant to be "Alright"
Also curious because I understand airtight to mean something vastly different
