I could move to comcast, but honestly, the 6m which keeps dropping at peak times isnt as worthy to me as the 3/768 that is always up & rock solid at three times the price...

a connection that doesnt keep me connected when i need it does me absolutely no good.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16306623 Thu, 15 Jun 2006 09:22:59 EDT Re: Translation" http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16304696 djdanska : Fine, here are some screen shots.

Well, the fact is that 6 Mb WILL be more than enough for Joe box of rocks (just as it is now). As it stands, 1.5 Mb DSL is plenty for doing the things Joe does. like surfing and streaming music, or, light file sharing.

The only people crying for more bandwidth are the geeks who want to run servers on someone elses dime and gamers/file traders.

For all of you complaining about at&t and every other providor offering this and that... Go back to Dial-Up. I'll take all the bandwith they will give me for as cheap as I can get it. I don't like wasting time staring at a progress bar.
Or get comcast. hehe I get a bit over 8Mb download and now upto 25Mb for large files. ;-)

I'm not on HD, and use DSL for work, as its been solid (couple issues over 3 years).
The one thing that will keep me is cost/service.
Cable (Comcast) right now is overpriced, and has poor service in my area.

Comparison:
Comcast cable: $60.40 (digital for 1 set) or $55.00 for analog
HSI bundled: $42.95 + $3 rental
Voice (Vonage - Comcast doesn't sell it here yet): $24.95/month
= $131.30 + taxes/fees/franchise fees

DSL: $29.95/month (3Mbps/512kbps)
Phone: $ 39.95/month + $4.95/Canada (unlimited = Vonage)
DirectTv: $55 / month (3 tuners)
= 129.90 + taxes/fees/FUSF, etc.

They're pretty similar in cost.
Comcast has poor (analog --> digital) quality on channels below 100]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16302637 Wed, 14 Jun 2006 17:17:21 EDT Re: Translation" http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,16302606 razzorr : I can not even get the 6......

Right now I can begrudedly look forward to testing LightSpeed -- as a non-HDTV user (for now).
