Diagnosis: AOL dial up is very slow.


It’s worse than slow, it’s practically a virus.  Dump them no matter what they say or offer you, delete all AOL from your system and go with anything else.

Don't I wish I could, it's 24.95 a month to boot. But I can't get BellSouth, and that's the only other provider in the area. And I would still be stuck with dial up.

I used the Dallas server and got 7406 kbps download and 818 kbps upload on Comcast cable. Pretty good compared to most of the rest of you except for that braggart Steve. :D

I wish they didn't limit our upload so much.


Caching?  How does that effect things?

Our cable lines were recently upgraded to 6 kbps so I shouldn't complain at all seeing how I hit 7400 kbps. :)

On the news yesterday they interviewed a guy here in Sweden that made his own modem and network card for his computer. He ended up with a speed of 40Gbit/sec (not Mbit as most broadband connections). Apperently its the fastest speed ever made for download in the world today. it took 2 secs to download a Dvd movie he said...
mmmm future...


Agh McFarland, a few extra dollars is going break the bank?:rolleyes:
