What's your speed and what type of connection do you have?

Any faster and it'd be going backwards.

What's your connection?

Just wondering what kind of internet connection ppt members have. Are you lucky enough to have a super speedy connection or are you gathering cob webs listening to the dial up?



Does this need to be moved to Computers and Technology?

I have a cable modem, so my internet connection is pretty quick. The only time I have occasional problems it is due to the website I'm trying to access as opposed to being a connection issue (unlike the last company I was with...my internet would go out for days at a time).

My freshman year of uni, my connection was so fast, it could probably go backwards if it was any faster. Now I have Roadrunner since I'm living off-campus. It can stand to be faster, especially when there's down time and it crawls.

Cable nice. No one else in the neighbor hood with cable better. I practically have my own dedicated line, and that was from the cable company.

Cable modem. My dad insists we have the best connection in HK, but I think it's okay-ish ... or maybe I'm just used to it xD

Cable at about 3.8 mbps

The second choice I guess? Though it's great compared to the dial-up I was on for so many years. x_x
