Cable for about 35$ a month from Tele**** err Telenet

Kabel is even goed als ADSL en kost evenveel. Spijtig dat er zoveel mensen op dezelfde lijn zitten
En belgacom zijn dieven

[Static]

Road Runner rocks... $39.99 / month (actually 1st three months are only $11/month right now in Rochester!!! WOOHOOO!)

I will NEVER go back to dialup!

[Static]

My connection costs $40 on top of have digital cable service. Since TimeWarner is a monopoly, they don't care about price.

Most users don't need this, but a second DHCP connection is $10.

RR doesn't offer Dynamic DNS services, and you can only get static IP and DNS services if you start paying $140+. There is a 40Kbps upload cap. And since they don't balance their subnets, you can wind up on a crowded cluster and never get better than 400Kbps download.

I've gotten 700, which was slower than the T1 in my last apartment complex, which measured 900.

It is notably faster than dialup services, and better than DSL. But TW has no competition and is relying on the AOL-ize public to fork over entirely too much money for entirely too little service.

Oh, forgot to mention, the @Home service in Florida offers static IP at much cheaper rates than RR's DHCP. I don't know about DNS services.

[DerFarm]

DSL with BellSouth network. 39.95/mo. It's ok, but I wouldn't
want to live there.

[Stefan Raab]

i was using a 2800 modem but then i upgraded to a 28.8. man, this thing flies!

[chrisjk]

ahhh, the days of 9600 modems...beautiful

@home does rock. for an extra DHCP it is 5 bucks per. but you can network them together and get 2 for the price of one.
over all I think it is $40 a month.

I used to have SDSL 1.5Mbps both ways. Now I moved into a new house where I cant get any broadband, except sattelite (which is $700 for installation)

At work I have T3 (sweeeeeeetttttttt)

$40? Which state are you in?

My father in law in Florida pays less than that and gets static IP (which he doesn't need).

[scoutt]

I'm in Oregon. and it is cheaper than having an extra phone line and an ISP. so $40 is cheap for here, it was up around $60 a year ago.

[kedaman]

I got internet access trough 10Mbps ethernet connection the uni network, I am not sure about the price as it is included in the rent, it should be about 60-90mk/month ($10-15)

[siyan]

2Mbit / 0.5Mbit cable.

Best line speed is 233 down and 62 up sustained, and I can hit 200 down, 53 up pretty much any time.

(Those figures are KiloBYTES)

$40 a month.

[filburt1]

Cookie power cable.














*cough*

Comcast@Home 1.5 Mb downstream, ~$40 (my parents pay for it )

[siyan]

Hey Arien remember that time you could only get like 5kb/s off my FTP and my friend could get 60? Great ISP you got there :P

[filburt1]

At work I got a 1.5 megaBYTE downstream.
