Your ISP History

[Rip the Jacker]

What is your ISP History?

AOL? Compuserve? MSN? Yahoo? Verizon? Comcast? Cox? Prodigy?

Mine would be..

Compuserve--> AOL--> MSN--> Verizon (broadband) --> Comcast --> Verizon --> (going to be comcast, again, or maybe even Verizon FIOS)

local internet host ----> frontiernet (broadband)

 

[dugweb]

local internet host ------> Cable one -------> college dorms piece of shiz ISP

 

[Agnostos Insania]

Hmm....

Prodigy --> Some local ISP --> AOL very briefly --> Some local ISP --> Earthlink --> Cox Cable (current)

I had this thing called net something in the early 1990s.

I forgot what it was called.

Someone help me out?

Netgear?

I forgot..

AOL in '94, then BOSS (local ISP), then some other local ISP I forget the name of, then back to BOSS, then back to AOL cuz they offered satellite broadband, then Charter when cable finally came to our area, and finally Comcast when I moved to Seattle.

Let's see if I can remember them.

AOL--->GNN--->AOL--->Ameritech.net--->Stratos.net--->Adelphia Cable(current)

There was one between Ameritech.net & Stratos.net that I can't remember the name of. I was only on for two or so days, terrible service. I think it may have been mindspring.

parents ISDN line (6th grade - 8th grade) => AOHell (8th grade) => Comcast (8th grade - present)... Sure last year i was on campus network which gave me like 6 MB/sec, and now I'm on SBC 3mbit at my apartment (and I think SBC blows cuz Comcast is hella faster at home).
