Why is T-2 even on the list? Only places I can think of with T-2 (or T-1 for that mater) would likely have MORE then T-2.

 

I have Cable.

Yah, i dunno. I was just putting all the ways to connect to the internet i could remember.

Comcast Cable which is really speeding up lately. I believe it is up to 4.5Mbps now.

NTL Broadband, not wireless. :huh:

That’s impossible, coax can’t support that speed. I think you are thinking 450 Kbps (that's a much more realistic speed).

I have no idea :huh:

I'm cheap I have Dialup at the house, if i need broadband I will go to the girlfriends house

Well...I said LAN, but it's really that we have a wireless LAN hooked into a DSL connection which is really a modified dial-up connection! :huh: Did I put down the right choice?

My service is that speed. Do you want to see the benchmarks?

OK, here are the benchmarks. DSL is over 450K

That's download speed; not connection speed, there is somewhat of a difference... and I think we may also have confusion with MBps vs. Mbps (the cap on the b makes it a different measurement, B is byte; b is bit).

 

Only thing I am sure on is this B vs. b vs. BM is confusing, so, thank you; good bye. *leaves topic* :lol:

I've got SBC Yahoo! DSL, and it is the worst ISP I've ever had. Every month it stops working, and I gotta call tech support, and it's not even that fast. I clocks out at like 650kbps, where Verizon DSL is 3.0mbps, for comparison, there are 1024 kbps in one mbps, mbps is Mega Bits Per Second.

[LordOfTheBorg 1]

you think 650kbps is bad, try my dial up internet. I got 45.2 kbps... on lucky days, i get 48.0kbps... and now you think ur internet is bad?

I did use the small b. By the way, a broadband, modem speed varies quite a bit in speed. It depends on the site you are browsing. Many sites do not support Cable speed. In fact, some sites do not even support DSL speed.

 

Also, there are 8 bits in a byte. :lol:
