    Just a general question, I hate dial-up, and I'm on DSL right now. Works like a charm, satisfies my gaming needs as well. I doubt you guys have T-1 or T-3?

    At the moment, I use dialup at home.I just need the internet for checking my emails and participating in forums. But very soon I wish to use a broadband connectivity.

    I have dialup and I'm so sick of it. Supposed to be able to get DSL later this summer. I checked into satellite internet and received really mixed reviews, but will probably go with satellite if DSL does not materialize.

    Dialup, and I hate it. Was thinking about satellite internet too but I heard the latency is high, I know the price is high and my satellite TV & radio is unreliable (signal loss with weather) so I think I'm better off with dialup.

    Most pages load in a few seconds anyway, forums almost instantly. It's images, flash, downloads that brings it down.
