i've had way better reliability both with connectivity and speed with my DSL compared to the cable modem. just depends on service, area, all that jazz.

sure, if my cable got lucky it could burst faster than my 1.5 adsl, but my dsl is more consistent and i can always get 150k or more per second through my DSL.. my cable would go from 20k-120k and sometimes i couldn't even make a socket connection anywhere it got so lagged.

i got a static IP too with this DSL, which not many cable companies will allow nowadays.

I don't know how long I would last without a fast connection.

I run frantically in circles in a sweating panic when my cable goes out. When i have to move I just get xanax from doc until i get my internet connect back.

Does anyone here ever use Roadrunner and have trouble connecting on-line? I have the hardest time getting on line, the only thing I can do sometimes to get on-line is to re-start my pc 20 times or so...

I have active accounts with multiple ISP's to ensure I am constantly online.

Costly but effective.

Have you had DSL or Cable before you had RoadRunner?

I am looking for honest comparison, it is available here and wanted to ask someone who uses it how it compares to DSl & Cable... any luck?

No, I'm in Garden Grove. I'm not sure why I'm using Roadrunner

It sure beats aol though when I can get on-line, it's fast, just having a hard time getting on-line. I always get "This Page Cannot Be Displayed", and then I shut down my pc and unplug all the cords, let it rest for 5 min and re-start everything and it still won't work. I can't release or renew my ip either. That's why most of the time I don't shut my pc down anymore, I just leave it on all day...

But sometimes it gets frozen and I have to reboot

I think Roadrunner IS cable. But no, I haven't had DSL ever, so I can't make a comparison. My isp before Roadrunner was aol dial-up

, I've used aol for over a year even though they have cable and dsl where I live for a while now, because I was too lazy to have it installed

It sounds like your having problems with your NIC card. Have you called tech support? you may have to release/renew your ip. how come you cant?

I called tech support numerous times and they never have it resolved completely. I always have to go a "specialist" and they may fix my connection for awhile, but after I restart my pc it's all
weird again. When I'm having problems getting on-line I always get error messages when renewing/releasing my ip. I get " DHCP server is currently unavailable" or something like that.

Anyways, I'm moving in a few days, so perhaps it will work better at my new house or something... who knows...

Morgan · 08-08-2002, 02:39 AM

phogirl69 · 08-08-2002, 02:41 AM
