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!

$39.95/month 3 meg DSL.

$39.95 - Cable

1.5/256 DSL BellSouth FastAccess

7.8 meg DSL upto 1GB - then I flick to 256k dsl

Going to wireless soon...... 11meg!!

on a 1mbit/512kbit adsl line

switched from 56k to ISDN recently, DSL is still in an experimental phase here so I cact get it.. no cable either.. sad :(

Full T1

Last months bill paid in full was $754.37

(Monthly)

14.4 kbps altavista :Graucho

$77.00 month
cable with 5 ips for 5 computers

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.

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

$40 for a 250Kbits cable connection. No other cable choices where I live :(

used it before with both res & bus... works fine.


i would have a 768k/128k dsl line, but my isp fucked up so i get a 384/256k line. SLOW AS FUCK. i hate dsl.

Holly shit 11MB???

earthlink dsl-but want to switch to t-1

is it worth it for the t-1?

Professional board whores have l33t connections. :1orglaugh

11mbit.....

My local elec company have set it up.... they havnt got a clue what they are doing.

Should get it in a couple of weeks - and it is cheaper than my adsl (256)

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.

cable and adsl

Cable here...

Home office - Cable into Linksys for all 4 puters here.

Work Office - Full Ds-3 ( 45mbps ) for staff ( all 8 of them)

0.5mb DSL connection ... 40$/month

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

Alot of people actually do that... I dont, but alot do

australia
sucks

im paying 89.95 per month for a

adsl \/ 512k 128k /\

and im CAPPED at a 4 gig download limit lol

Cable...... $39.95/Mo... set up through a home server to distribute the connection throughout the house via a hub and a wireless router. All desktops in the house are wired to the network, laptops and pda connect to the wireless router.

did you ever try earthlink in vegas?

dsl, but i'll be on cable for at least 2 months when i move to toronto

t3.. don't ask me why.. don't even use 1/50th of it :(

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:

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.

Cable.

t1 work
cable home

cable faster sometimes:(

I have cable, $39.95 a month. I love it...usually. Last night and today though the thing has been up and down like Oprah's weight problem. I haven't gotten fuck-all accomplished. I was going to use my time wisely this morning and finish up an anal hardcore AVS site since my daughter was out of the house and I could actually -- gasp! -- work in the daytime. But my connection bounced on and off until I just gave up and went back to bed. :feels-hot

Fiber optic connected to internet II

300 baud :)

Business cable

3MBit down, ~200Kbit up. Suck my COX cable modem.

Do you work for cox or something? Or is it the crack? because

a) Cox cable starts at $49.99 a month, and I pay $59.99 because I refuse to use their bloated priced cable TV.
b) Goes down every other day sometimes for 8+ hours
c) only recently got fast with the new "change over" last month. 14KB/Sec upload is not fast.

No... I don't work for COX. I am only answering a question that was asked by another Las Vegan. Since my experience with cable has been positive... I passed that on.

I re-checked the price, it is $39.99 a month, I did type $39.95... I was off by 4 cents, no misinformation intended. I do have cable TV service and I own my modem, so it is less than 40 bucks a month.

Your problems with the cable may be related to your area???

I have never had problems with the cable speed. 14KB/sec upload? I have never experienced that. For what you are paying a month, I'd be pissed off too.
