Crappy modem user here.

Tex
Crappy 56K, even more crappy Juno ISP :embarassed:

yerssot
even Tex surfs the web on a 56K???

I know someone who is supposed to surf the web at a speed of 10.0 Mbps, he downloads now at a rate of 5 kbps!

Raz
One xDSL line here, with crappy BT.

mah
ADSL 704/128 Kbps

yerssot

mah

yerssot

I have a DSL too, they're currently upgrading it so it can FINALLY get some decent speed (they claim 3megs/second)

Thomas H

LanceWindu
Right now I'm on 56k, which is faster than some other 56k's I've seen out there.

zimbo
I have calculator!and it's fast!

ToMacco
More computer talk huh?

Well, I'll say it again then. My computer sucks ass. I hate it. I'm going to burn it.

LanceWindu
No, first take it to the biggest building in your town and throw it off.

Then take the tiny bits back to your house and toss those in your fire.

finti
adsl(asl) 704/ 128 same as MAh smile. Pretty fast

Corran
Either 10.0 Mbps or 56K modem depends where I am.

ToMacco
I have a 873 GSLpv-er with Miahoff lifters.

116 DSL 35 megahurts. 7 amps of gigga-wats in the 289er.

mah
big grin

Gundark
Cable modem. Its pretty fast.

Corran
It's Gundy, woo-hoo, why do I get the feeling you are avoiding me?

yerssot
because of that big sign she carries where is written "Avoiding Corran"

Corran
Kind of gives it away

Darla
I use my college computer, which connects via the college's server. Or something. Don't know what it is, but it's not bad.

Corran
If you posistion your cursor over the bottom left-hand corner, the pics of the 2 screens, it should show you the info

Ushgarak
My connection doesn't have that pic...

Corran
What version of Windows do you have?

Ushgarak
XP, so it would be bottom right., but my new connection simply doesn;t have it like the old one did; makes disconnecting a pain.

Corran
Yes, I meant the bottom right, still don't know left from right. So it's the one you hold your knife in.

Ushgarak
Also when the connection set itself up it tried to route my mail server though my LAN instead of my modem. D'uh!

yerssot
what if you're lefthanded?

mah
then you're lefthanded

yerssot
I doubt it

Orpheus
I'm on cable with Blueyonder. Whats all this talk about disconnecting, I gave that up months ago, its a bad habit.
