hehe cable rulez
I really love it ... never been malcontent about it the only thing that is annoying sometimes id that my provider has a 10GB Download limit (which I have crossed sometimes .. resulting in 24hr lockout..)
just make sure you're good informed what the limits etc are ...

Here are some speed tweaks for your cable or DSL connection.

http://cabletweak.beemerworld.com

Most of the research was done at speedguide.net (http://speedguide.net)

This is a good one for WinY2K as well as Win98 and 98se.

Just a word of warning about cable isp service. When you're online, you're also on a large network with everyone else who has that particular cable service. It takes very little to hack into a machine which is on the same service. Also, as more users are added, the bandwidth decreases. I live in an area with no cable available, so I use satellite isp. It's always on, and my downloads are between 300-500.

I'm still hoping for DSL or Cable. The local provider said "Late July" and I consider it close enough to "late July" and still nothing...

Everyone keep their fingers crossed for me! http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

I am graduation from college and moving out from the university owned apartment by the end of the month. That also means I'd have to say gooodbye to my FAT internet pipe (10Mbps) I have had since 1996. Sure I'll get cable for Internet (1.5 Mbps), but 1.5 Mbps is just too slow... http://www.sysopt.com/forum/frown.gif
