How is this even possible in 2024? I realize Rochester isn't exactly a major metropolis, but we're in the middle of town! It's not like they're relying on Hughesnet or something.

Also, it's not that they're cheaping out on us either. The owners live upstairs. This is a duplex.

if the listing advertised "high-speed internet" or anything with the wording "high-speed", then i'd call AirBNB and complain until i either got a partial refund or a rebooking elsewhere. Rate 1-star and post as many complaints as possible on as many social media outlets as possible with the full name of the AirBnB host. Name and Shame.

Basically, be as big a nightmare as possible (without getting kicked out) until either it gets fixed or until you get enough money back to make you feel better.

edit:

The owners live upstairs.

i wouldn't let them sleep a wink until that's 50Mb/s+ both up and down. should be at least 100Mb/s, but 50Mb/s is manageable.

They're fucking you while on vacation, and i would make their live a LIVING HELL. being cheap has consequences...

Or, hear me out, they could just be a polite human and ask about the issue before jumping to conclusions? It could be a simple case of them restarting the network to fix it. Throwing a tantrum over this without any other information or communication is just pathetic, why would that be your gut reaction?

It's actually crazy how many adults are entitled children who don't know how to deal with issues

Acting like that can very easily backfire

Yeah... even if the people are dickheads, why go through the effort to stoop to their level, just move on with your life.
