My DSL ISP sucks mighty @$$! I will now be without DSL service until at least june 15th... any advice for dealing with my withdrawl symptoms?
oh , by the way when my service is back on I'll play a game of counter strike in Windrivers honor... ( look for a player named windrivers avenger :) )
Wooooo C/D that sucks
Sorry to hear that guy but at least you can get DSL. I live far enough out in the woods that my only choice besides this shi**y dialup is sat. dish that i cant afford.
Got a letter from AT&T Saturday notifying me of a $6.00 per month increase..... :mad: Good luck getting yours back up and running...
Well that does bite the monkeys @$$....well, look on the bright side, that will be about the time that I finally get high speed access at home
Huh...here in the UK the average user is still stuck with dialup 56k access. ADSL is rolling out really slowly and its still not available in my area. Even if it was, i dunno if i could afford it :(
Darren, whats your connection?
512/128 Cable - £24.99 inc VAT a month including Cable Modem rental.
Who's that with? NTL? Doesn't really matter as i'm too rural to even get cable....just gonna have to wait for BT to pull their finger out i guess :(

Not the best of services but beats DialUp just :(
Waiting patiently for the 1Mb access that they are supposed to be releasing soon.

What's up with that. I got that notice too. I will of course pay it for now, until DSL is available in the area. I need more upload speed.Quote:

Ooooh that's gotta suck. Don't know what I would do without mine. Well this is about the time that they need to run fiber optics throughout all our homes and require Windows 2000 in order for it to work. Not trying to be a communist but maybe I'll get less calls then.
Got a T1 at work and a cable modem at home. Muw ha ha ha ha ha ha ha <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
i can crawl faster then my connection ...
Oh well,
I think I will be sticking with my 33.6 dialup connection until the rates for broadband goes down....
Got a phone call today to tell me that comcast is offering cable access in my area now. GOOD BYE AOL HELL, I DON"D NEED YOU ANYMORE. I CAN DRoP YOU LIKE A BAD HABIT. I have been using AOL for 5 years now, flame on...I hate it but it was the best access I could get because everything else I tried went bankrupt with in a month of me using them. So this time I am going with Comcast and hopefully that will rock. I still need my modem to dial into work, but no more having to pay homage to the modem god and AOhell demons
How much does Comcast cost?Quote:

If you had to use dialup at least don't use AOL!!!!!! <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0"> <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">
50 a month, the first three month are free. I used AOL because I got a year free on my first PC and was too lasy to change it after all the pain i went through with other ISPsQuote:
