Welcome to the "Big Pipe Club" .......

I'm getting sick of every last one of my 48kpbs, abd I've been wanting to go up to DSL, but the companies that have the best deals (free modem, etc) want a year contract. Since I'm a dorming college student, Im never home for more than a 3 month stretch. (I would basically want it for 3 months of summer, and January of winter break).

I think I'm going to end up dialing up until I have my degree though...At least its only 4.5 mo/year now. I'm flying at 10Mpbs the rest of the year http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif. But once you've tasted it, its hard to go back.

I'm in that phase now.

vooguru i know just how you feel. just had my dsl activated on the 23rd of may. whatever the wait or trouble to get dsl it is sooooo worth it.

[charmler]

Haven't the slightest idea what a CD-MODEM is. I also wonder why you need a dial-up modem. I only needed a network card.

[hallam2003]

The dial-up is for back-up, i think, I'll never hav anything faster thatn that, untill i move that is...but oh well, they ussualy provide a back-up dial-up #, incase the DSL goes down...
