You have me beat on the average conection speed (I have 50 kps), but since I use AOL dial-up, I beat you on drop-outs. Try every damn 20 minutes.The Yosemite Bear wrote:As far as I know Me and Verillon have the two worst Internet connections around here, So I figured lets see.
Average Connection Speed: <22-kps
Drop outs: Hourly
Connection Type: Dial Up

Drop-out is where a dial-up connection disconnects itself.neoolong wrote:What is meant by drop-out?

)Most Dsl connections are seriously reliable these days....what's the point if it don't work after all?...the dearer services aren't nessicarily the best though, where one gives good service...there's always one that would give better eventually...Captain tycho wrote:Captain tycho wrote:Batman wrote: I doubt you could afford the one I got.

Edit: Fucking keyboard. I erased Batman's response by accident.
Is that 50 Bucks before or after the 70% come off? If before, that's about what I would pay here, if it's after-ouchCaptain tycho wrote:I doubt you could afford the one I got.

50 bucks is the base price. I get 70% off of 50 bucks man. That less than what you would pay for a dial-up connection.Batman wrote:Is that 50 Bucks before or after the 70% come off?

And I'm not shelling out that much money for a connection I'll for all practical purposes only use on weekends. Working for an IT company does have fringe benefits
I use dial-up AOL and I ocassionally drop out. It helps that AOL 8.0 has an auto-reconnect feature. A lot of the time when it drops out I'm not even aware of it as the program reconects itself. Since I run Netscape over AOL it generally doesn't interupt my SD.NET experience. IE: It doesn't cause everything to be marked read.Batman wrote:I get ~49K on a dial-up connection and dropouts accur once in a blue moon.
