Just taking a survey. How does everyone connect to the internet? I have cable broadband.

At home, we have AOL dial-up. It sucks :barf:

On campus, I have Microsoft Internet Explorer and it's a cable modem. I like it much better. It's faster and doesn't crash as often.

I just got a cable modem not too long ago!! yay!!!!
before that, I had 56k.

I remember days of 14k, then upgraded to 56k, couldn't go back to a dialup modem again

cable..i cant go back to 56K :)

Funny thing is I use dial up and I love it! I never have had the problems people say they have had with dial up. Mine is also pretty fast too. It's very rarely slow unless there's alot of people accessing a certain website at the same time or something, but all in all my dial up is great.

I couldn't afford Cable or DSL if I wanted anyways :(

I have road runner (through the local cable company) and to tell you the truth, I dont like it, how my computer is, it just meets the min. requirements which means it dont have enough memory to go at the full speed, it does go faster than dial up but it cost me nearly $50.00/month .. Im ditching it as soon as we get our phone in

I have DSL and love it.

lol yeah! I remember when we had a 14k modem (i think that's what it was)!! It was sooooo slloooowwww that it took hours to download a picture. lol!
i remember i was younger and my favorite movie was the Lion King, and my Dad downloaded this 8x10 photo from the movie for me, and it seriously took about 2 hours. :lol: that just seems so crazy.
