What kind of internet connection do you have?
What kind of internet connection do you have?
So my 1 year commitment is up with Verizon DSL, and now Cable is available.
Verizon DSL speeds are 768/128 $35mo
Earthlink/Comcast is supposed to be >3M/384 or 1.5M/256 which would speed the website up a tad $45-49
So what kind of internet do y'all have?
Anyone have cable? Has it been reliable? I'm specifically interested in anyone with earthlink cable. Did you have to pay for installation? PPPoE? Lease/own modem?
My DSL has been rock stable for years now, so I'm a bit hesitent to try something new.

Matt you know what I have... I love it still and with the city signing up 1000s of people the speed is only down to about 7.5mb/sec during the day. The great part is that its also 7.5mb/sec upload as well...
I do have friends and family with cable and they really like the speed and reliability of it. My brother says he get about 3mb at nights and a little slower during the day. Not too bad..

I talked to a friend yesterday, and he told me about a free speed upgrade with verizon. All you have to do is ask. 1.5Mbps downstream.

Unfortunately, faster downstream won't make the website any faster. I asked for faster upstream too, but I doubt I'll get that for free.
