What kind of internet connection do you have?
 
With all these threads about GFY or other boards loading slow I wonder what kind of internet connection does the average GFY user have.

Post how much you pay for it too!

Business class comcast cable $75 a month here at the store, Time Warner cable, $50 a month, at home. Both are plenty fast for me.

Rictor 06-21-2003 04:00 PM

Anyone have multiple ips with Time Warner? I'd like to put my wife on her own ip.

Jarmusch 06-21-2003 04:01 PM

I don't see why it would be worth it unless you're doing mass uploading and/or spam operations.

Only if you have an office of people to share the connection with and maybe run your phones system off of it. Or you are using it to host a couple sites.

I've had a T1 to myself before...definitely wouldn't pay for it if it was just for me.

It depends what you do on your computer.

If your a horny old retired perv like me who cruises live sex video rooms all day then it certainly is.


But Id think for just building and being a webmaster of adult sites, then no, its not really worth it.


BUT with a T1, if your starting a paysite and you dont want to do hosting, a T1 can support a good amount of users at one time.

Those high speed connections coming through the electrical lines sounds pretty cool. Will be interesting to see it works like they say it will.

You can't be serious if you actually would host a website on a residential T-1. :1orglaugh

I'm just tired of waiting for files to download-even with dsl it takes too long for me-plus If I work for a website I would hope t-1 would be faster than dsl

A friend of mine uses it. In my opinion, I would not waste my money on it. It is not near as fast as COX cable. If you ask around, anybody that has cable in Vegas will tell you that it is super fast.

I have used cable for 4 years now and speed has never been an issue. My only real limitations on speed have come from the servers I am trying to download from. At $39.95 month.... there is no better value in Las Vegas.:2 cents:

KRL 06-21-2003 06:47 PM

DSL at 1Mb/sec.

Not sure what I pay, but I think its $49.95/mo, plus I keep an old dialup account for backup at $21.95/mo.

Plus there is a coffee/sandwich internet cafe shop nearby where you can plug in as a 3rd backup.

Plus a Kinko's with highspeed access as a 4th backup.

austinth 06-21-2003 06:50 PM

Cable.

BJ 06-21-2003 06:51 PM
