Post - What type of internet connection do you use?


What type of internet connection do you use? Whats the download and upload speed?
As for me, i am on broadband with 256kbps connection. I can d/l at speed of 13kb/s and upload at 3/4th of download speed.
Good part is that it is unlimited use connection and has affordable price.
What about your connection?

lol you sounded like you owned him =) I have an 8meg connection but we can only receive 6meg max where I live, although I sometimes do get 800kbps download speeds!

Ahem... Well... At home I am actually on ISDN dial up

But I normally access the net with a 3G (UMTS) GSM card which provides me enough speed to work from home in a decent manner.

My software never has bugs. It just develops random features.

^^^ Lucky you... ADSL is up to 99% coverage in my town but I live 4.5 kilometers away from the central in both directions leaving me without connection until Telenor or other company boost the line performance. They barely could deliver ISDN to my home address too... Man, I live in a "hi-tech" country but.... Nah...

I have charter cable and supposedly it's 5-10mb download, but you couldn't prove it by me. Seems it's slower than it was when it was only 3!
