What type of conenction do you have?

I'm still on dialup :: don't look at me like that! ::. AOL to make the situation worse :: quite staring at me! ::. I hope to get broadband soon. :oops:
 
And I thought I was stuck in deep water. Everytime XP crashes while AOL is running, I have to reinstall. AOL takes forvere to install! It gets cheesy, very cheesy after awhile.
 
Im currently on 56k Aol DialUP, but im proud to say i ordered Adsl ( 512k download, 256k uplaod ) about two weeks ago. Im just awaiting the modem, and confirmation from BT they have done the stuff at the exchage :D

I use 56k at home (AOL). I actually connect at something like 32k....thats how far away I am.

I've got a 768/128 DSL at my office in town.
 
I find it to be an unbearable experience if I connect at anything below 45K. :: OMG! I Spilled my SunChips! :mad: ::
 
Let me change my answer.....I just got one of those Wireless Link phone line things where the phone line runs over the power lines. I'm connecting to AOL at 14.4 now! :cry:
 

Aie, personally at home I have 56k. I use Tiscali France. They are pretty "fast". Currently connected at 50k which is nice. :)

Office, I had only 56k installed. Since I own my own company, and chose to build the company office in a real bad area... I was really forced to, if I wanted to own my own office building - since I own personally 14 acres of land in France, so of course decided to build a nice office on it.... and for miles only 56k is available. Just my bad luck I guess. :rolleyes:

I've been contacting the local companies and so on, for quite a while, and some are planning in the future to put broadband in either my area or why I had my offices built, some both even. Although - one of which is AOL and I don't want to go with them. Another is Free Internet, but they're doing it at the end of 2004, which is another year. Some others said if I paid them the money to install it all, they would.... meaning not only would I have access but everyone in my area, which is only farms. So of course I'm not really willing to invest hundreds and thousands just to get ADSL, hehe.
 
Greetings!

Right now I am on a dial-up (less than 56kbps). But, that kind of speed is still tolerable for us as of the moment. We are thinking on getting DSL connection. It is a matter of balancing costs I believe. The great thing is this: We are using an ISP which offers free internet connection from 12Midnight to 7 o'clock in the morning. And as of writing it is 1:02 A.M. here. Now, that's more like it!

Take care everyone!

BroadBand ROCKS!!!!!!

I feel sorry for you, I once had to bear the pain of using dial up. . I now use a 1.5Mbps DSL connection. I dont know what i would do without it. I can download a 600Mb game and play it within 10-30 minutes depending on connection speed. I used to have to let my computer run for days before i had broadband when i wanted to download games.
 
for a few weeks I was back on dialup @ home while BT mangled the exchange about, and the grand speeds of 9600 via b/tooth using laptop and mobile when the phone line was out as well.

now I'm back to my 2Mb 1:1 ADSL and *very* happy again ...
 
Im on 1024kbs(1mbs) down and 256kbs up at the moment may upgrade to 2mbs soon but i never want to go back to 56k.
