That's crossing into the shady line of legality. Better off PM'ing someone from the Initial D forum.

DSL is awesome, plus its more stable (IMO) than other services....

actually my friends tell me that they have had really bad experiences with the local cable server which is why i went the DSL route. Cox cable is a bad route to go if you live in the New Orleans Metro area.

DSL is better for online gaming....but cables a weeee bit faster.

Cable is a little faster, but when I had it, it was really sketchy, like it got kinda slow during busy hours and really fast at like 3am.... My DSL is always pretty fast, so I like stabilty a little more...

Agreed, it's such a great thing when going from 56 to cable-DSL.
I remember when I went on the first time ;-)

Luckily now I m using WIFI connected to cable, and I can recommend this to anybody with more then two pc 's at home, it's awesome!

Only your opinion, I'd rather be in America. Hey we can trade countries, we get GTRS and all that over here in Australia! :icon16:


Long life to 56K! Not really, I hate it, we could get hooked up on ADSL and pay the same price monthly as we are now for our cheap arse Telstra 56K deal, only 700mb limit. I'd love to get ADSL, Detroit Locker has it, lucky bastard! It's good to bludge off your friends fast internet though :bigthumb:

I guess, your right, America is awesome... But an easily obtainable GTR would be great... Laters, Mate.. hehehe.. J/K

false... Cable acess time is way faster than DSL... Stability should be better on cable too since you don't need to "conect".

but isn't this topic totally off topic ? :loser:

Maybe where you are, but here, the cable is always clogged up during peak hours and blacks out alot due to Oceanic Cable (iTs a company for Hawaii) problems.... And anyways, my computer is online whenever its powered on.. I only speak from experience... cause I'm not a computer geek and all, I'm sure that stuff variates in different areas, but thats how it is for me....

btw I'm a high school student who doesn't really care about "network administrator certified Microsoft" I care about the people OUTSIDE their moms basement(yeah, we don't have those in Hawaii either, too wet in Hawaii) Laters "company computer guy" :loser:

thats messed up. he's just trying to say he's qualified in this area. if I said the turbo on a Ferrari F40 is set to 14 PSI boost stock, you would believe me much easier if I said I used to work in marinello Italy building them wouldn't you? Not all PC ppl are geeks dude. :thefinger just most of them :sunglasse

Sooooooooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.... It's just a joke... and yeah, I like, still don't care.... geek or no geek, he still made that loser remark thingy, so whatever

yeah I guess he did do the loser thing. I assumed he meant himself and you both for gettin off topic though. oh well like you I don't care either. later brotha. :smile:
