Guest Kioet Csuhen Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 I have at&t broadband. dialup people pity themselves too much.

Guest Master Yoda Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 ADSL here I get around 100kbs download rate. I use the local telephone company its called CGTelco, thier dialup access sucks but thier ADSL is SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTT!!!! I feel sorry for you dialup guys\girls.
Guest Kioet Csuhen Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 don't feel sorry for them, it's their choice they have that crap.
Silenthunter Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 I have cable and it's very nice Oh, and I use IE.
Guest Boba Rhett Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 No it's not. Don't jump to silly conclusions.
Guest dlayers Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 I have both ISDN An early form of broadband, with the inconveinence of dialup!

It is NOT their choice to have dialup Im sure that most everyone here would LOVE to have Cable or DSL(which is better than cable since you get dedicated access as opposed to shared access), but they may not be close enough for DSL or they cant afford Cable\DSL, so just be a nicer to them I know that if I had read that when I had dialup I would have been pretty ticked off.
Wraith 8 Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 Well now i have ISDN..... But wednesday i will have MAXXSTREAM.... ow.. you guys will know it as ADSL.... Now my provider is the best of the NETHERLANDS: Planet Internet and i will keep this provider..... when i get ADSL.
Darth_Rommel Posted November 12, 2001 Posted November 12, 2001 I have cable.... I think it's overrated!
Guest Tie Guy Posted November 13, 2001 Posted November 13, 2001 I have cable.... I don't think it is overrated! Really though, i like it alot. Its from a company called Time Warner cable, and the service is called RoadRunner. I use the IE6 Beta. (if you don't have it don't get it, it makes all sorts of ads pop up randomly)
StarWarsFanMan Posted November 13, 2001 Posted November 13, 2001 I have Fiber Optics and IE 5 I think. Fiber is very nice!
Guest Nerf Herder Posted November 13, 2001 Posted November 13, 2001 I have Cable from AT&T Roadrunner. I love it and can't imagine internet life without it. I have a friend that has dialup and I usually walk away for a sec to do something else while a web page is coming up. If i have a choice between DSL or Cable I might still use cable. I know I lose speed with the sharing, but when I usually go on I can get anywhere from 100 k/s to 270 k/s. I've mostly heard of 100 k/s for DSL. But either way I'd take broadband if I move and have to get a new service.
Link Antilles Posted November 13, 2001 Author Posted November 13, 2001 I'm thinking about getting a broadband. How much is it for you?
Guest xwing guy Posted November 13, 2001 Posted November 13, 2001 I have a DSL and those things are sweet. BTW, I have MSN and I have AIM.
Guest Master Yoda Posted November 13, 2001 Posted November 13, 2001 I paid 50 bucks down and then $60 a month but I had to sign a 2 year contract that said if I stop the service before the contract is up I have to pay 250 bucks, which is ok with me since I dont intend to stop it.

Tha is a little out of my price range!
Guest Tie Guy Posted November 13, 2001 Posted November 13, 2001 I only pay 40 a month, a little less than a dial up with a second phone line would run you.
Guest Kioet Csuhen Posted November 13, 2001 Posted November 13, 2001 Nerf Herder u stole my picture i'll kill u!!!!! j/k

Well, he could always move... or he could spam the cable/dsl companies begging them to bring cable out his way. eheheheheheheheheheheheheheheh i have AT&T BROADBAND. and....it used to suck. that is, until they came out and asked if we payed our phone bill, i didn't know so i said 'i don't know' they disconnect it, i call my parents, they get all mad, call them back, they reconnect it, and TADA!!!! no more being kicked off for 10-2 hours at a time!!!! instead now, it's 30 seconds-1 minute. and it happens everyday, but at least it's not longer than that.
FlyBOy Posted November 14, 2001 Posted November 14, 2001 i have cable connection. It's very nice. very nice indeed. Man, i feel extremely sorry for you dial-up guys:)
idiot00001 Posted November 14, 2001 Posted November 14, 2001 I have Cable, but I used to have AT&T broadband and it wouldn't work for about 1 or 2 days every month.
