I am not a city slicker. I live in a town of less than 5000 people.

I apologize if I offended you (or anyone else for that matter), bad joke. Just my highschool has about 60 kids in 9-12, and the closest town has 1,200, the second closest has 200 or so, so even a town of 5000 is big to me.

Here's mine:

I just had mine turned down earlier today, I can't justify spending the money on the connection I had. I tested earlier today and got somewhere around 8meg down and 390k up, so no real change on upload and pages still seem to load about the same speed.

I tested it again (per your suggestion) with my old dial-up service this time.

I'm using wireless laptop connection and receiving line-of-sight wireless connection to the house. (approx 10mi.) I live in the country and can't get wire high speed connections.

The speed is fairly comfortable unless I'm downloading a big video file.

Dude, what are you doing? 43 million megs download? Off dialup?
Are you running this through an anonymous server or something?

I dont like this wireless internet. It is the most unstable form of internet ive ever used and i started out on 28k so ive seen it all pretty much at this point. Ive used wireless on friends computers and it works fine, so im not saying its bad but i just dont like it. DSL was so easy to troubleshoot and was fast enough for me.

EDIT: Anyone know how to keep ping down?
