    I will ignore your sarcastic remark and proceed to do cartwheels

    WHEEEE !!!!

    *slams into wall*

    Besides, as opposed to having *NO* connection at all, this is great (FYI, I am posting from my crappy work connection, not my 1337 home connection)

    I have DSL, and for two years up until this week, it was spectacular.

    However, this week I got the notice that their policies have changed, and they now charge 7.95 per gig of transfer over 10 gigs (5 up, 5 down). I racked up over a hundred dollars in excess charges last month, but they sent me an e-mail saying that since it is a new policy, they will only charge 50 dollars.

    Forgive my language, but ASSHOLES!!

    Going back to dialup. At least they never tried to rape me.
  • Yeah, before you F33L 7]-[3 0'//N4G3, make sure you have a deep wallet. Rogers pricing went up too this year, and rumor has it it'll only be a matter of time before they cap the max amount of transfer per month.

    heh, I get only 50 cents per extra gig.

    And my provider is a home-grown operation, so it's prices are pretty low IMHO (35 per month, this is in CANADIAN dollars, people).

    I pay 45 plus the extra bandwidth... whores...

    I've had DSL for 3 years now, Besides the price i love it, i pay $79.95/month for 1.5mbits down/384k Up, static IP. the actual price for my plan is now $109.95/month, but for some reason, they never raised my rates (knock on wood)

    My DSL has been fabulous, the only time its been out for an extended period of time was on September 11th, when the buildin that housed much of my telco's equipment was hit with a very large airplane.
  • WHY_oldWHY_old Elite Ranger
    well, by some incredibly stupid twist of fate, my hard drive crashed on me and I'll probably have to get a new one.

    *screams up into the sky*

    WONT YOU JUST LET ME BE HAPPY FOR ONCE !!!!

    I got Adsl! I pay 50€ per month for a 256/128 connection!
  • Got Cable here...

    768 Down 256 Up, Dynamic IP, 42.95US/Month

    Love the service, except when squirrels chew my cable on the pole... [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/biggrin.gif[/img]
  • PJHPJH The Lovely Thing
    ADSL here too. 1Mbit down 512Kbit up, no bandwidth limit, 104.61€/month. That's about the same in US dollars.

    I used to have Cable, which was 2Mbit down and 256Kbit up, but I had to go back to ADSL after I moved. It was less than half of the price of my current ADSL and twice as fast. Damn DSL prices. [img]http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/frown.gif[/img]

    I have the same specs as you, but mine is only 40 bucks Canadian. Strange... and for 60 bucks, I can get 4.5 Mbits down and 1.5Mbits up. 10 gigs up and down.

    yeah, DSL here is oddly priced. i did get something from Sprint, and for $149/month i could have gotten 8mbits down/1.5 up, but i can barely afford the $79.

    Those are US dollars right? Converted to Canadian, you are paying like 3 times as much as I am. Horrible...
  • BigglesBiggles <font color=#AAFFAA>The Man Without a Face</font>
    You should see NZ prices.

    Damn man, for that much they better give you lots of web space along with that. Before DirectTV bought out Telocity, that same plan would've only cost me $45/mo. No installation charges and free DSL modem.
