So, my Mom's a Teacher and they got a new school, and New Internet. It's like the FASTEST internet I've seen In person. (It's fast because only a couple of techers are on the Internet since the school year hasn't started yet) Do you have faster ones? Post them, i'm interested to see! Christian || http://Doolgo.com

Right, never heard of it until someone mentioned it. (tweetdeck) As far as the dial-up sounds, I grabbed a BSOD png (set as desktop image) and turned off explorer, ran the dial-up sound on the wifes machine last night, LMAO she was all over the pace yelling through the house as I watched. Funny as shit

Changing the name does not do much for changing the underlying facts. I Only use IE for a very few items that were specifically written for it's use. A name change will not change my mind about it's lack of giving a hogs leg about keeping up with the realities of todays web services. They are going to have to leave that old 'we lead the way' tripe behind. Because they do not. Though at this point, it's anyone's game, whoever chooses to stop getting sucked in by the bribes.

It's possible but probably more to do with the client computer than the host connection. For example, say you're on an iPad using a 250 Mbps connection. Unless it's some next gen iPad you aren't going to pull those speeds all at once on that one device. You'll be limited to the maximum throughput the device can handle. The additional bandwidth allows for multiple devices to perform up to their potential. I'm sure that there are people out there with 250 Mbps + who only see a small fraction of the speed in general use. The difference... those people can have a party of people over... streaming their lives away and nobody's going to interfere with each other (if things are properly installed and the ISP is delivering). I would love to have those details on people but unless I ask a question there's no way for me to know what people are supposed to get. TMN tries not to ask people questions... only provide answers.

I may not have a 1Gb connection, but I have a *dedicated 100Mb connection that I don't have to share with my neighbors and my ping is better. Almost spring! /knock on wood In other words, I'm kind of jelly. You getting that 10Gb service for $400/month? *Not truly dedicated, but the ISP provisions bandwidth such that all customers can run at 100% at the same time without overloading the GPON port. My fiber is actually dedicated all the way back to the CO. They use a flat network design, 1 hop for me to get to Level 3. Now I just need to figure out how to get testmy.net to play well with my system.

I'm visiting a friend in the mountains in Cotopaxi Colorado... litterally middle of nowhere staying in a camper. No reception... but I found a little patch of service, 4G and I've seen up to 15 Mbps. I hopped on my laptop and downloaded a couple GB of HD content and sustained 2 MB/s for the entire transfer. Amazes me. This result was pretty average. :::..

The mountain I'm on right now (but the picture was taken during the daytime) super remote location... Verizon is awesome. Now if they would just unlock the caps or charge a reasonable rate for overages. Technology these days... I'm in the middle of the forest, maybe 10 people within 30 miles and I'm getting 5 times faster connection than my first cable internet connection. Insane to me.
