they charged us $600 for their mistakes
we're not paying it, they can go forget themselves
What was the problem exactly?
I know they charge $50 for a service appointment if the problem is with your own equipment. If it wasn't your equipment at fault, they can't charge anything. Even if it was, they should have had it fixed within the first appointment, not 12. You should only be being charged 50 at most
you send it in some http requests, so your ISP could probably find out what OS you use, as long as it wasn't encrypted or something, but then it would only work when web browsing (I doubt things that aren't browsers usually send that information), so it would be kinda pointless
plus it would be pointless to begin with. why would they throttle it for certain operating systems?
it probably isn't working because XP is 14 years old
Ah yes, the user-agent header. I keep thinking that it only includes browser.
Two problems with it:
1. It can be spoofed or not sent at all
2. Discriminating based on it is illegal in the us
There's also the fact that the IP error he is getting is from a failure between his computer and his router with nothing to do with the isp
