eww dial up

Martin · 12-04-2003, 10:00 PM

I am now back on 384 / 128 ADSL.

Shakie · 12-23-2003, 10:04 PM

ADSL 1.5 down / 256 up also.

I am happy with it. I DL @ 155KBps consistantly and upload @ around 27KBps.

Cable!

Martin · 02-08-2004, 11:54 PM

Anything below 128K would be considered unacceptable to most, but using dial-up for a long time will eventually cause adaptation to such slow speeds.

EDIT: I should probably add some more options to this poll.

Cable here as well.

I worked for years online, using dial-up and was always frustrated with the disconnects and slow loading pages. At the time, the small town I lived in, didn't have broadband. Man!!!was I happy when I finally got cable.

Pretty much the same here... I was in for a shock for several weeks when I got cable broadband a couple years back.

LOL! I remember calling my girlfriend in to the room every few minutes, saying; "look at this! look at how fast I am downloading this program!"
