Whats Your Connection ?

just a quick survey ... what type of connection do you have ?
it was brought to my attention that a few of us (only 1 name comes to mind ) that some of us may be on a old school 56k setup .. so here it goes what kinna connection do u have ? this is for HOME connections ... no T1's or T3's from your work .. im currently splittiin rogers high speed with my roomie but we may soon switch to sympatico ultra (stupid azz rogers sux)

heh ya sympatico is wayy better than roger (no BW caps or speeds caps (as much as they try to deny it .. damn rogers) but ya the ULTRA is 59.99 a month .. i really want to get on that but our problem is (me and my roomie) we are cell phone addicts and dont have a land line ... so in our case it will be 59.99 + 25 bux for the land line ... i cant belive that a basic azz dial tone still costs 25 bux .. im like i dont need ur damn phone i just need the dial tone to get on the net .. there like ya its 25 bux ...

get a BW monitor and see how much you actually download, some of those people who say they hate the cap because it will inhibit they're downloading, dont even come close to the cap each month.

hehe i acutually used to monitor my BW when i was with sympatico high speed (b4 i moved) and i woudlnt say that i hit that BW but i mean i used to DL sometimes 15-20 GB a month (xbox games mostly/some dvds/ music) but then again because me and my roomie are splitting u have to take into concideration that its 60GB split between 2 download ****** like us .. id rather not have to monitor my BW .. plus i want that ULTRA speed lol

I used to have sympatico, and they came up with a bandwith cap, and didn't tell me when I went over (no email or anything), so screw them (bell support service sucked anyways). so screw them, they aren't getting my business....
