Thx.. to answer : no, no tower, no wireless, no cell phone around here , as I said, nothing , nada, Xplornet was and still the only way with dial up to be connected ... at this point, I can't afford to change any dish or else, I just want to be able to browse ...

Thanks for the reply yes they did extend for a new full 3 years but I had only one year done, so if I did my maths correctly even if I cancel I save some $ ...Around here, there is absolutly nothing else ( cable, hi speed by phone) except dial up, no way I get back to 28,8 connexion.... .I tried ( unsuccesfully) to get the info of what would be the download limit on that new contract ... is that legal that so many terms are not fullfilled by them when they make you sign a contract with so many empty space ????

ok..just to add some salt... to have that kind of connexion , for a 3 year contract they made me pay 104.00$ per month ... I just went on their website and saw exactly the same package now offered for 79.00$/month !!!... so, in order to save 290$ per year I just made them change my contract for the new one, I figure with the money saved it will pay the cancellation if a another company show up with internet connexion in my area .... tested again : Your connection is: 643 Kbps or 0.6 Mbps You downloaded at: 78 kB/s You are running: 11 times faster than 56K and can download 1 megabyte in 13.13 second(s) Member Ident:Username:Musher CompID:67977858658 Test Time:: 2009/07/29 - 1:03pm Test Browser and OS info: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1) Test ID: 5B42NC0MF (if this is a screenshot go to testmy.net to see if this is fake) Diagnosis ^info^: May need help : running at only 72.09 % of your hosts average (barrettxplore.com) This was tested from a 1024 kB file and took 13.047 seconds to complete Your connection is: 31 Kbps or 0 Mbps You uploaded at: 4 kB/s You are running: 1 times faster than 56K and can upload 1 megabyte in 256 second(s) Member Ident:Username:Musher CompID:67977858658 Test Time:: 2009/07/29 - 1:04pm Test Browser and OS info: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1) Test ID: HRLV5QU1I (if this is a screenshot go to testmy.net to see if this is fake) Diagnosis ^info^: May need help : running at only 17.92 % of your hosts average (barrettxplore.com) This was tested from a 97 kB file and took 25.219 seconds to complete
