What kind of connection do you have to the web?

I have a cable modem (Shaw@H----oh wait, it's just Shaw now).

...but where's DSL?

T1 at work and dial up at home !! :D

Home Connection: Shaw Cable
Work Connection: T1

Dial up!:o
why? Cause its free

Where's DSL man? It's free for me....

As for work, depends on the destination, it will be via anything from OC3 to OC48 (for now, OC192 coming). Guess where I work at... :rolleyes:

Ahh the benefits of being a DSL Admin. :p :monkey:

Free DSL, and do whatever the heck I feel like to my connection (can't quite jack up my speed yet, but it's getting there - gotta be friends with the core engineer) - You gotta love that!

Don't mean to brag but thanks to NOVUS (http://www.novus-tele.net) I have T1/LAN at home. :D

At the office ISDN. :(

Have a cable modem. My friend's tried to convince me that ADSL is better, but then I just told him I can't get it in my area. BOOHOO!

(Oh well, my cable connection hasn't been too bad).

56k dial-up that doesn't go 56k... 31.2 with the paid for ISP, 26.4-28.8 with the free ISP. paid for ISP sucks (go figure).

cable isn't available in this town, but it is in all the tiny towns around us.

DSL is available in this town, but that availability stops about a mile to the north of me.

the tech college has a T1.

I heard that we might be doing extended reach DSL next year (2002 that is)

I used to have both DSL & Cable, until my parents cut the cable ('cause they are paying it, not me, and my DSL is free). Had fun though trying to load balance the traffic between DSL and Cable.

I think wireless DSL will be there before satellite.
