π The Legendary ISP Support: Masters of Router-Blaming Arts π
Let me share the magical journey of contacting my ISP’s support team
a group of highly trained professionals who seem to believe every problem in the universe is caused by one thing:
π Is Actually Your Router.
Sometimes you can face Internet drop suddenly?
->They will say Router problem.
If you say Upload speed dies?
->Replied back Router problem.
Server cache overloaded?
->Obviously router problem.
Meteor hits the Earth?
->Definitely your router, sir. Please restart.
I honestly admire their talent.
No matter what complex issue I describe, latency spikes, periodic disconnections, PPPoE session resets, cache refresh patterns
They answer with the confidence of someone who has never seen a networking book in their life.
π₯ The ISP Support Script (Leaked!)
Support Agent:
“Sir, off kore 5 minute rakun. Shob thik hoye jabe.”
Translation:
“We have no idea what you’re talking about, so we will provide our holy solution.”
Me:
“But the connection is dropping every 2 hours at the exact same second—this is a server cache refresh.”
Support:
“Router off korun.”
Me:
“My traceroute shows backend congestion.”
Support:
“Router off korun.”
Me:
“I sent logs, timestamps, signal graphs; this is clearly server-side.”
Support:
“Router off korun.”
At this point, I’m convinced their office whiteboard has only one line written on it:
“If confused -> blame router.”
π€‘ Their Technical Understanding: A Documentary
They genuinely believe:
-
Router = responsible for PPPoE session resets
-
Router = responsible for ISP server cache failures
-
Router = responsible for backbone congestion
-
Router = responsible for global warming
-
Router = responsible for Bangladesh losing a cricket match
Meanwhile, the real issue sits proudly on their server like:
“Look at them arguing with customers while I’m catching fire.”
My Favourite Part: The Denial
Even when:
✔ My router uptime is solid
✔ WiFi signal is stable
✔ Logs show server-side disconnections
✔ Multiple users face the same outage
✔ Speed tests show backend instability
Still, the support team responds with the same legendary line…
“Sir, apnar router burro hoye geche.”
BullSh***t replied (“Your router became old.”)
Yes, because obviously, my router is like an 80-year-old grandfather fainting every 2 hours.
π When You Give Them Real Evidence
I showed them:
-
Packet loss logs
-
Latency heatmaps
-
Upload drop charts
-
Timestamped outage patterns
-
Proof of cache cycling intervals
Their reaction was priceless:
“Hmm… ekbar router off den to.”
At this point, I realised that their server could explode, burn, melt, disappear, and they would still tell me to restart my router.
π― Final Thought: The Support Team Might Be the Real Problem
The internet itself is not as unstable as their excuses.
If the ISP truly wants to improve:
-
Hire support agents who know the difference between a router and a server
-
Teach them basic networking (just basics, I’m not asking for CCNA)
-
Accept that backend issues exist
-
And PLEASE stop treating the router like it’s responsible for every natural disaster
Because let’s be honest...............
The router works fine.
The excuses don’t.
