finally no 5 hour downloads!!!!
Welcome to the club!! :D
What is your connection? Cable? DSL?
DSL rocks over cable all day!!! 2.8 Mbps straight to the desktop. It will be ever more once I get the cap removed.
DSL sympatico.
Welcome to the club I am running roadrunner cable Modem at Home and soon at My Shop.
Damn...l got all excited. l thought you had Yahoo! free internet access giving you high speeds ;)
I just moved, and in the interim period when I didn't have cable modem, I used MSN. Does it ever suck ducks. 56K is bad enough, but msn is just unusable.
I wish I had Cable or DSL. I am still running 56k. I guess I need to catch up with everyone else !
yeah, i'm using cable modem. just switched about 2 weeks ago and i never want to go back to dial up! especially downloading those huge iso files (linux)!
Hello,
While high speed access is great....until they drop the prices in my area and make it so it is as flexible as an analog modem is to a travelling PC user...I will stick to my 56k(though I max out at 33.6) connection.. :)
I had cable modem until a few months ago I moved into a new apartment. Its more expensive so I thought I would just use a 10 dollar a month dial up to save money. Boy was that like suicide. I called the cable company and told them to come out TODAY to get me hooked up.
Not happy....everyone has high speed...
Oh well, in may i should be getting 512kbps DSL...one question, is 512kbps worth it? Is it possible to watch most streaming video on? :confused:
yeah burnfest that is. You can always set the buffer time for longer periods to.
I am forced to do that with my dial up.
consider yourself lucky, mine maxes at 24,000bpsQuote:
