By dial-up,are you referring to one that uses your phone line?Please excuse me,I'm almost computer illiterate.I originally had AOL.At the time,I was doing
alot of temp work(mostly for ManPower)If I was on the computer & they called me for a job,they'd get a busy signal & call someone else.Understandable,because they have contracts to fulfill.I switched for just this reason.I was losing too much work.Whoever wanted a satellite,forget it.I
have had many friends,that got them & were very dissatisfied! Irish

ok ........how bout you call for me next time?

sure thing ;)
i am always sweet as candy, and use my bestest little girl voice...gets me whatever i want, ever time :D :p

irish...dail up = phone line

Yeah, I suppose I should not have threatened to flog their server boys :spank:

Hope you guys get your cable modem up and running soon.

I just got rid of dsl and am back to dial up :( Grrrrrr

But when I had comast a few yrs ago it was good- when we move we will be back with comast. Cant wait.

30$$-ish?
I pay 50$$-ish a month! :eek:

Although I am happy with 4Mbps. :D

My cable plus 1 digi TV thingy and no premium channels is $116

i was waaaaaaaaay off. it's $42.95/mo for what they call silver o/l cable motem. all of our media is through comcast and i had to check the bill breakdown. works out, after all is raped and pillaged, to about 90$$/mo
/me needs to [ay more attention to the $$$$

I also have no other Comcast services... if I did I would pay $42.95 for internet and then whatever godawful amount for cable tv.

the dvr is worth it....it makes bigbad soooooo happy! and it's only 10$
the cable is 25$ and then all other sundries get nickled and dimed: modem rental, franchise fee, event sales tax(??? dunno what that is), another franchise fee, fcc fee, sales tax fee, the free fee that insn't so free, and don't forget the bend over, we are gonna fuck you up the ass and make you pay for it cause we know you LOVE it fee. <~~~~don't mind that last one so much :p

Hmmmm...
/me puts on a Comcast uniform
I'm here to collect this month's fuck you up the ass fee. :D

:jump:
/me suddenly hears seventies porno music....bownt-chick-a-bownt-bownt

Now I know why I love satellite (which you can get a dvr with, wyndhy) and dsl... :)

maddy, do you find you need to fiddle with it alot? does it mess up the picture during wind and rain storms?

Just noticed an article about this huge problem in the Detroit newspaper. Here's the link if anyone's interested.

This guy is the tech reporter for the paper and he really puts the blame where it belongs.....right in COMCRAP'S lap.
