Well looks like rural Illinois just became 3rd world, I only have 1 ISP option they suck and treat all of us around here bad but being a monopoly they can get away with it.
I called to complain one time and was told 'If you don't like it go with someone else' knowing they are the only available ISP for my town.

I find this hard to believe.

The only local ISP perhaps, but are you also including all of the national ISPs?

If you want good ping dial-up I recommend At&T Worldnet for Central Florida anyway.  My DSL ping isn't really THAT much better sometimes I wonder if it isn't about the same (I was always low 100's with ATT dial-up anyway).  This all depends on where you live of course, we have an excellent phone system in this area of the country.

Yes I am including the National ISP's from the town I live in any other ISP is a long distance call and with long distance rates as they are I would not be able to play any amount of time at all before my phone bill would be a 3rd world countries national debt!
Even my only local ISP is not that local, it is not a free call, so yes there are parts of the US that you consider 3rd world.

There are many areas in Maine that have only one ISP Innominate, you can chose to beleive it or not but it is a fact.
