DSL

I used to have a 256 Kbit ADSL. But they gave me the option of having a 512Kbit connection with a 5 GB d/load limit for the same price, which I accepted. According to my calculations, I d/load about 4 GB every month. So it's all good.

i hated it when i had DSL. they gave me 384k down / 256k up and wouldnt let me upgrade it when i shoulda had 728k down for the same price.

so after the year contract was up i switched to comcast. god love em

5 Mb/s down and no real set limit of downloading.

of course that was just my crappy earthlink DSL. theres some very good DSL speeds and companies that people have. that just wasnt one of em. lol gotta go with whats best in the area you have.

I'm with ya Null... Comcast is the way to go. They are the kings when it comes to cable internet and cable TV around this town.

We just a got letter thing from Comcast informing us that all the lines have been replaced with fiber optic lines in our area providing us with a faster internet experience.

I'd like to get Comcast digital cable for our TV.

My Mac is hooked directly to the cable in my room and it's fast and great. But the last couple of days, our PC in the neighboring room that's connected wirelessly has been quite slow and that's annoying. I only moved the router a couple feet from it's original position so that must not be the problem. Maybe the metal floor lamp next to the router is causing interference?

I keep lagging out on WC3.

Virus or spyware maybe?
