So I am looking for an apartment to move into next year...

...and they all say that they have T1 internet access. What the hell is that supposed to mean. They have 1 T1 that is shared between the 700 residents? I have my own T1? I mean come on, don't they realize that internet access is more imprtant to some of us than how many bathrooms an apartment has? I can pee outside, I can't download "software demos" at 4Kbps. Argh!!!!

<< They have 1 T1 that is shared between the 700 residents? >>



In most cases, yes.

Does no one else share my plight?

here's an idea: call the leasins office up and ASK

: )

t1 for everyone? are you crazy... thats about $1500 a month alone for each unit! Most likely its shared, and if you don't like it you might be able to get a dsl line hooked up to just your unit

yeah the apartments around here offer the T1 connection. what a load of crap... its so slow cause it is shared amongst everyone. so i ordered dsl, so much nicer
