Re: speed

I guess by their definition my old 1200 baud modem, which I have stuck away in a box would quality as "almost broadband."
and the melodrama on BBR never ends...1.2Kbps (aka 0.15 KB/s) isn't anywhere near 768kbps (aka 96 KB/s).

Ya it is, when freakin' comcast (or whatever is causing the problem) slows the connection speed down during the evening....

Which is why 1200 baud of pure text data that I want would be way faster than broadband full of sh*t (ads, viruses, etc) I do not want.

The reason we need all of this bandwidth has a lot to do with data we do not want.

But still it would help if we could keep the prime time slowdown to a minimum.

Finally got a personal response from one of our 'Elected' officials over my experiences with Comcast.
