What internet service u have?

I hate my SBC dsl!!! Dunno why but it keeps droppin my connection around 6-9pm. Doesnt happen all the time maybe like 3 times a week. Im pissed cuz Im paying $50 a month!!! I think im might switch to cable. Anyone here know which cable service is good? I was thinkin about Adelphia.

We have ***... its pretty good, but upload speed sucks - they limit it. Part of it might also be our wireless network.

john the only reason ur cable modem is great is because 1. you live in glendale ($) 2. you have one of the most advanced cable systems in LA.

i have sbc at home and at the office, i have static ips on both behind 2 firewalls... the connection ova here at work is pretty fast, at home it really takes along time to load stuff, but thats because my computer sucks ***... because i have static ips, it never drops...

i have sbc dsl for $26 a month. you know that special they have. i have no probs with it and no drop connections, in fact, i was told i was very close to the "relay station" or something, so my up/dl are up to max. i'm happy, but i liked roadrunner cable more cuz it is faster. i compared with my friend who has it. btw, this is in orange.

I have SBC dsl (used to be pac bell), and it is SLOW, STOPS WORKING, AND DROPS CONNECTION.
The only better internet I've used is at school and at my bf's office (he also has SBC dsl.
So I guess it has to do with my modem or my area.
Sucks, but I stick with SBC, because dsl is all I know. I don't think I've ever used dial-up or anything else in my life before. I don't even know what it's like.

yea, location does matter. like i said, my sbc dsl is fast. i reach peak bandwidth to what i'm paying for, so i'm not complaining. perhaps you want to try cable? oh yea, i'm surprised you haven't tried dial up! it's so much fun! you get to read or watch tv while you wait for something to load.

I have Earthlink. I could use some more bandwidth though, I pay $50.00 for 120Kbps downloads. Anywho it is hooked up to a linksys wireless router with 4 computers connected.
