xs1 Posted November 29, 2004 CID Share Posted November 29, 2004 I have the same thing altho reformat IS always nice, it isnt necessary. With adwareSE you can remove the spyware, then keep "adwatch" on at all times. According to my adwatch the damn spyware has tried (and been blocked) 569 times to reinstall itself.

Marcin541 Posted November 30, 2004 CID Share Posted November 30, 2004 The first disadvantage is that cable is an RF network -- this means that it is vulnerable to transient problems "within the network" from RF interference. Since cable is a shared media, there is a possibility that performance may degrade over time as additional households plug in, connect additional devices (videos, game machines etc.) to the TV lines. A cable company may react slowly to decreases in performance if it reacts at all, as they never sell access by speed, or promise consistent speed or latency. Another of the disadvantages of cable over DSL is the upstream (return path). Cable companies are using a very narrow band for return signalling, and this is positioned below all the space allocated for TV channels. This band is prone to RF interference and is very limited in capacity. Upstream transmissions may therefore compete with others in the area, get delayed (suffer high latency) due to noise fighting techniques, and cable TOS (Terms Of Service) typically prohibit any kind of constant upstream use. Internet use is shifting away from central servers broadcasting to many individuals and some interesting peer to peer applications are appearing (games, voice and video applications, communal libraries). These applications need a strong upstream channel. In summary, cable modems are currently good value and strong competition for residential casual use, often available more cheaply and far faster than their ADSL competition. However, DSL is probably the more future-proof system, offering digital direct from the internet infrastructure. If your DSL ISP is on the ball, your performance in either direction will not be different from peak hour to early morning, and DSL lines are available for a wide variety of purposes, both business and residential. Read that Mr. xxxxxxxxxx Cable companies forbid any sort of constant upstream usage So if you use alot, there are 2 ways they can deal with you, either make you pay for all that overused bandwidth, or start to slow you down.

Guest PeePs Posted November 30, 2004 CID Share Posted November 30, 2004 Yeah, I'd say when I uploaded like 3 GB in 2 days it probably made them angry . **** I could still do that with 72 KB/s if i kept it up 24/7 though. Oh well........ I ruined a good thing and now i must suffer the consequences of having an upload equal to most peoples! DAMNNN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcin541 Posted November 30, 2004 CID Share Posted November 30, 2004 Hehe, its still faster than mine. One thing i would like to say is that im not saying Cable is worse than DSL. Most cable services are way faster than my dsl, but they arent available for me. One isp i considered was OOL, but i cant get it. There are many pro's and con's to dsl and cable, but for me dsl was the best way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok " Mr. xxxxxxxxxx" where in there does it say that if i buy dsl tomorrow ill be linked directly to this "uNliMitEd" backbone of bandwith as you so say? So if i switch tomorrow, i can be getting 2 or 300 mb connection?? I mean, of course, since YOU say the bandwith is uncapped/limited Originally posted by Marcin541 [. Youre limited on cable unlike with DSL which is unlimited. ] btw whats this about " you cannot have a constant upstream or they will deal with you" ??

Marcin541 Posted November 30, 2004 CID Share Posted November 30, 2004 [insert more xxxxxxxxxx here] I think you know exactly what I meant, unless you truly are a xxxxxxxxxx. DSL offers unlimited access as in you wont ever go over the limit of downloading or uploading too much, unlike with Cable. Cable companies tend to do that when you waste too much bandwidth. Youre limited on cable unlike with DSL which is unlimited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xs1 Posted November 30, 2004 CID Share Posted November 30, 2004 is that right? o_o... iv never heard of that. Iv had my cable company 2 years now. Iv reformatted countless times, and after every reformat iv re-downlaoded all 110 gb of my need share @ speeds using all my bandwith ( about 40 % network utilization) as well as uploaded as i said, about 178 gb every few months. (some months more then others) Hell, jsut the hub i run for the past 9 days has used 6 gb of uplaod bandwith. So where you get this cable is limited shit i have no idea. Mabey speed wise its limited, hard to be honest, but so is dsl . :::edit::: as a matter of fact, just 1 monthsago on my last format, i (re-)downloaded about 87 gb of my share in a few days ( like 2 i think mabey 3 non stop) . Iv never been " penelized for overages" or anythign of the sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanBuren Posted November 30, 2004 CID Share Posted November 30, 2004 guys chill.......... there is no reason to call ppl names, just beqause you have a diffrent opinion.... since you are a moderator .s1, you should try to leave the kindergarthen stage and argue with a decent language. Unlimited transfer traffic or not is set by your isp, its not limited in the type of connection. Cable connections is half duplex but thats another story.

xs1 Posted November 30, 2004 CID Share Posted November 30, 2004 you obviosly need to grow up, and in my opinion is not mature enough for beeing a moderator of a decent forum... lol why? because someone doesnt agree with xxxxxxxxxx opinions, and gives counter opinions that are non sugar coated? Well if you want to be all sweet and kind with "decent language" then that your style. As for others it doesnt apply. Because Ca3le even said that there arent restrictions on language (yet) unless well you know.. you use racist comments or somethign lol. So if you dont like my language, then you " grow up" and accept it. If anything PM Ca3le and tell him to de-mod me, because either way isnt hurting me one bit. I dont see why you feel like you run this place, but you dont. You had no right unlocking a thread that another mod felt went too far. By opening it you allowed more posts just trying and stir up shit. But hey! YOU know best. debate was so fun so you had to lock the thread right Again, i locked ti so we wouldnt get 6 more posts by people like hahn to try and throw fuel onto the fire.
