I used to have Dial up, but about 4 or 6 months ago I got to switch to cable internet. It is so much better. I would never be able to use dial up again!

You have the right idea. it took me 10 minutes to get to the forum! my internet has an average speed of 28 kbps! my dad bouhgt himself a 2,000 dollar go-cart last month and he says we can't afford hi speed internet. Blablabla thats all i hear from him now!

I have DSL that acts like dial-up a lot...I still remember back in the day when an MP3 had an average download time of 2 hours... and I was happy with that. As for the person that wanted 100GB/s speeds... we now have fiber. But be prepared to shell out more moola for more bandwidth... I believe Verizon's FiOS now offers 30MB/s bandwidth at the consumer level for most urban areas, although I believe that you may be shelling out $50 a month for that, up to $80/mo for 50MB/s.

yup i have dsl and forced to use netzero dial up sometime when my computer acts up.. and it goes SUPER slow. I dont know if its the computer i use or just the dial-up connection because when i used nocharge it ran pretty good for a while

Lol, Dial-up is funny. I'm so glad I don't have Dial-up. I've got broadband so i'm alright . Unlucky mate You should really get a good internet connection. Anything is better then dial-up.

Its true dude but you can't expect more from a dial-up connection.I myself hve a dial-up connection but dude I would like to use this one and not to switch to DSL because my net connection is completely free from 11:00 pm-8:00 pm and When I have to download a big software or program or torrent then I download at night and If its too big then I keep my net connection running during that entire period.Approx 700 mb gets downloaded in 11 days.

When I had dial-up, I had patience. :)Now I have a high-speed connection. Now I don't have patience. This is the upside to having a dial-up connection, because you aren't as ticked you don't have high speed internet. But after you have a high speed internet connection, the effect is magnified and it's not worth it unfortunately.

I hate the though of dial-up we use to have it but we have broadband now and when i first used broardband i was like WOW! it was incredibly fast compared to dial-up and same here we could only go on at certain time because of dialing up it is a pain in the but having to do all of that stuff .Kind regards, Jordan

Hey ppl, although I am using a Broadbnd but I feel that dial-ups are much better. 1. you can get access anywhere, if you have a telephone connection at your disposal 2. although the speed is very slow, but you get a unique IP address every time you dial, which is at times useful 3. It can be secured to an extent which you can never get with broadband. I wish I still had a Dial-up connection p.s. Its just my opinion

I hated Dial-Up until our connection was switched to Satelite. Our Satelite service is horrible. Its no faster than Dial-Up used to be but it costs a fair bit more. Atleast with Dial-Up you can listen to a funky tune while your connecting...

Who likes dial up? Everyone hates it. I used dialup for 4 years. It gives me the worst experience. And about the phones bills, my god. They were nightmares for me. And I tried to connect from my mobile phone. And that too slow. Hours and hours for even a small file. The only best experience is, due to its worst speed, I learned many things and found some useful softwares to speed up my connection. Recently, I changed to Broadband(ADSL) connection. The speed is upto 2mbps. Amazing. I never thought that internet could be this much exciting. Downloads in minutes. Super fast browsing. And many......I Love Broadband. And I hate dialup.

Hello!Hehehe, it reminds me of good old time! When I was not really using internet a lot and I was using 56k dialup ... Believe it or not, I swiched to DSL about 4 months ago for the first time since I needed to use it often for my projects and studies. And now, I am kinda getting online more and more, but still not much free time left unfortunately =(.But yes, gotta love 56k dialup =D I never found anything that can help to accelerate it unless you branch it to a DSL to make it 64k lolWell, good luck!Tim.
