That's three times better than what I've got 8mb down / 512mb up.

It's better than what I used to have. ;) Still not fast enough for my needs though...need better upload bandwidth. :(

Wayne Luke 11-23-2008 04:34 PM

Mine is slow today.. usually is around 20,000 - 22,000 download. However if you compare it to Brad's, you will see that bandwidth can vary even among a single provider. Not sure which package Brad has but I have their extreme package which is $56.00 a month.

I live in a semi-rural area though there are two fair sized cities locally.

I would not go there... :mad:

If you have a problem with that then I'm not even going to tell you what the shower/bath situation is over there. If you do go I hope you aren't shy about begin naked in front of strangers or sharing bath water! :D

The traditional toilets aren't that hard to use assuming you have good balance when squatting and haven't gone overboard on the sake'

When it comes to internet access, the USA is way, way, far, very far behind other developed nations. I live 4 - 5 miles from the center of town, only about 1 mile outside the city limits and I can not get DSL. The only high speed internet is cable modem and its slow.

The telephone company has no plans on offering DSL, they say its not worth it to build this area for DSL.

Developed nations?

wasn't the internet created here? [USA]
does Americans have more web access/computers/business percapita than any other nation?
