Title: What kind of internet do you have?
Post by: injest on August 23, 2007, 07:07:42 pm: I have dialup....was wondering what percentage of the members have dialup versus high speed

It's way faster than dial-up, but there are occasional "service disruptions."

Post by: ffrn on August 24, 2007, 07:21:57 am: Satellite broadband.

Dial up keeps dropping out where I live and the only kind of high speed connection available is satellite. Fortunately the government subsidizes it in areas like mine where other types of broadband will never be installed.

Post by: Kerry on August 24, 2007, 11:09:10 am: I've had super high speed wireless broadband for the past couple of years. A little gizmo that looks somewhat like a mobile phone sits on my desk and I never have to go anywhere near a phone line. I've not had one single problem with it. Simply couldn't live without it. :D

Post by: Ellemeno on August 24, 2007, 03:34:12 pm: I love my wifi.

If the first two respondants both have dial-up, why is there only one person listed with dial-up in the poll?

Post by: Dobie1018 on August 27, 2007, 09:50:54 pm: I have dial-up at home, and high speed at work. I may eventually switch to high speed at home, but right now, I'm O.K with it.

Post by: Wishes on August 28, 2007, 09:35:57 pm: Well I had dial up since I got on the internet, 1999. So slooooooowwww. I switched to Comcast last March or April and I LOVE IT!!!!!

No more wasting time in front of the computer waiting for pages to load.

I almost got high speed through the phone company but went through the cable since my house is alarmed and the alarm goes through the phone lines also. The phone company gets on my nerves anyway with all their fees and taxes. Comcast isn't cheap but I do not plan to ever get rid of it.
