Re: What's your connection?

I was wonderin' what this thread was about then the poll showed up. I was about to give away all my connections too. That was a close one.

Re: What's your connection?

I'm connected with 56k. Fastest download I ever had was 15kbps. Sometimes I just want to remove the testicles of people who post an insane amount of images on the internet without a 56k warning. Luckily, my laptop is fast enough not to fuck up...just takes a fucking long time to download stuff.

I'm actually on Roger's Ultralite Cable plan, but performance is similar to dial-up. Its REALLY slow compared to what I am used to, because back in Hong Kong I used to download files at speeds over 2.7 mbps. Sucks ass

Re: What's your connection?

56k, Connect at 50.6KBS down here and upstairs on my phone line with the newer modem about 52KBS. DSL and Cable are available but I feel no need to pay the same amount of money for one month of dsl that covers 3 months of my unlimited dialup.

Re: What's your connection?

I've had DSL for about 6 months now. I honestly don't know how i used to get by with 56k. Unbelievably slow compared to this.

I'm barely alive. God-damn parents won't upgrade my internet cause I have no use for it. I download a shitload of movies....I've probably seen every movie out there ever since the start of 2005 just by downloading. And I'm not allowed to fucking work either. Sometimes my WiFi card is faster, but it keeps on breaking up because I'm just stealing connection from another person.

Re: What's your connection?

1.5kbps ADSL from SBC-Yahoo (was good when it was Pacbell, got worse when SBC bought them, sucked ass after the Yahoo thing).

Shared between four computers... WiFi for three of them, including mine.
