    How long can you survive without an internet connection? Imagine if all internet access in your area is down... omg.

    I probably won't last more than 1 week, because my businesses are all totally online.

    Even if I didn't have any online businesses, I'd still wither and die without the internet within 2 weeks at most!

    Now I'm starting to wonder how long DPers will last without a computer! I think most will say 1 day at max LOL. We the sons of technology will die without it.

    Whilst I'm sure I could last for ever, it wouldn't be nearly as fun!

    I wish I can but it is very difficult to go without internet. One or two days can be managed...

    It should be a blessing in disguise to be peaceful and happy without that tangled net!?:p

    Maybe, I'm working with Internet, so without Internet, I had to find another job.

    I've checked this out once and I have to say that It was something about 72 hours - the most boring and nagging hours of my life ;)

    2 days. Considering how important email is to keeping in touch with clients, anything longer and I would starve.

    I can't afford to be offline even for a day but I can survive for 12 hours at most.
