Once you go highspeed, you'll never go back

 

[BiggieN]

awesome... i'm waiting for it to drop below $39.95 here. i hate how its only 720down/340up here. i want my full 1.5down/640up! but it doesn't really matter that much while i'm at school.

 

[Croton]

ok

i'm an idiot
how do i find out my up/down speed?

 

[CrumCake]

Got it, Speed Guide

Try Pc Pitstop.

This one is pretty good, dsl reports.com.

 

[MisterM]

Woohoo! Congrats!

I am going to get cable myself on monday, just so I can get an cable modem....

 

[HappyFace]

I just got earthlink dsl a week ago, and I'm lovin it!! Welcome me too, please?? hehe

 

[snow patrol]

Feel the speed

 

[purplehayes]

MisterM, Double check that you have to have cable before you can get a cable modem. I live in Atlanta and I'e got cable access without cable television.

[Ausm]

You want to hear Pain try connecting at 26.4 with no hope of ever getting DSL or Cable...

Ausm

 

[Croton]

according to DSL reports:

Test running..........
** Speed 596(down)/303(up) kbps **
(At least 11 times faster than a 56k modem)
Finish.

is that good?
I pay $39.95 a month

 

[Viper Frag]

Does Earthlink give you a static IP or another crappy method of connecting to the net?

 

[Pretender]

It's a little better then average.

Verizon has 640/90 for $39.95. Yours seems to be 640/384.

I'm guessing Earthlink?

[edit]oops, you already admitted it was Earthlink. I've heard good things about them, and btw, congrats [/edit]

 

[CrumCake]

ausm, i feel your pain. Been stuck with 28.8 for years!!

Not to shabby Croton. It'l prolly go higher, depending on the time of day and net congestion.
A friend here in town has Version and it's been in the dumps here of late. He's been on the phone with version just b!tching up a storm. Sucks when you pay for 768 down and are only getting 95-100.

 

[BlackFalcon]

You guys complaining don't know what slow is. I lived in rural Georgia for years and could only get around 14.4. The phone lines in my area SUCKED. Then I moved to Atlanta and got DSL this summer.
1.5 Mb/s down 512kbs up, $40 per month. Gotta' love it.

 

[HappyFace]

My new Earthlink dsl is 1.5 down / 144k up! *bump*

 

[snow patrol]

Paulson - you're capped at 16K now?? That sucks.

 

[ManSnake]

Good for u, welcome to the club!

I am in love with my T1 line at 100Mbps!

I also am enjoying my parents' 384Kbps DSL line!

Go high speed go!

<< Test running..........
** Speed 1056(down)/299(up) kbps **

Finish. >>



I love my cable.

By the way, that is to a server that is in L.A., CA and I am in NY!

Congrats man...once you go broadband, you'll never go back!

 

[BigToque]

Paulson,

I thought you got your connection for free! Your complaining about free 16k connection?!?!
