The most important tip is to never get DSL from Frontier ISP. The internet is as slow as Dial Up, or sometimes doesn't work at all, until about 10 PM.
@Tununias Sadly until I can get my mom to get AT&T's DSL service (just 5$ more than our current connection anyways) I'm stuck with their 14.95 (LIFE TIME CONTRACT) 1.2mb/s connection that's really a piece of shit they are limiting (When the contract says they are NOT allowed to do so).-.-
I use Road Runner and I'm pleased with it. It is unlimited and it does not block any ports so I can host my websites on my server. I just wish I could get a static IP.
Thats so true about returning the modem.....cuz if u dont u gotta pay a hella high price but me i dont live any where near the place so i had to UPS it back and just hope they got it...
well if you think your ISP is rubbish i have BT broardband and pay for a 8MB/s connection i am getting less that 10kb/s at the best of times THATS 8000x SLOWER THAN IT SOULD BE!!!
never ever have BT as your ISP
when i enquired to see why it was so slow it got a indian man in Calcutta Moaning on about nothing so i just HATE BT
I will relocate for good ISP. There is always choice =)
I will be moving 1 state north if Verizon Fios isnt offered in my area by mid summer. I want that 20 down 20 up!!! Still close enough to family for weekend visits.
LMAO Hummer your an idiot! how the fuck can you download files over the internet at 2GB/s if your only have a 56MB/s connection? You cant download files faster than what your connection is... idiot
Charter is my Comcast too. I get the full 5 Mbps that I pay for but the connection is comes and goes and it is hard to download anything that takes longer than a few minutes because the connection will drop temporarily and the download will time out forcing me to restart it. The same thing happens with uploads. I havent been able to succesfuly upload a video from this connection for months.
We subscribe to a premium DSL connection and pay extra, for about $80 a month, we get guaranteed 10mbit for gaming. I also run a P2P client 24-7 and have no problems with unstable bandwidth, or interruption in service. I run a speed test regularly, since our old Cable ISP slowly multiplexed out bandwidth down from 5mbit to around 1.5mbit over the course of 5 years. DSL is definitely better in this case.
I use an ISP called TeliaSonera (sweden). It's stated in our contract that we can get "8mbit/s up to 24mbit/s", for the same price as 8mbit/s. I usually get around 12mbit/s. Still, the connection drops frequently. The modem resets itself often. Dynamic ip address = fail. If you live in a big city here in Sweden - 100mbit for $30/month.
wow your lucky, i live in rural part of ontario canada, near ottawa, and the only interet i can get is Rogers Wireless Portable modem. I pay 49$ a month and my max download is 1.5mb and 256kb upload...i have only one other choice and its for 6mb download in our area, its 70$ a month and i dont have that kind of money.

And PS: yes I said my mom, I'm only 16 not like I can get DSL my SELF just yet. lol
But considering I might actually Graduate early if I pick up the pace just SLIGHTLY more than what I'm at now I probably could.

I use Comcast, and I constantly have 56Mbps.
I am connected to a router wirelessly, and the main computer is connected through CAT5, with 100Mbps.
I use a download accelerator that lets me download at over 2GB/s.
