Internet connections

cable internet at the house and i got the cingular card for my laptop.

 

I use WiFi exlusively on the road now. I had the Sprint phone modem set-up a couple years ago but at the time it was realy pricey. I have no choice at home, the building is 80 years old and I am only aloud to have cable.:smt044

 

None of the above. Satellite internet through HughesNet. I hope they get the issues with the intereference in BPL fixed. That would solve the problem for us rural folk!

 

Coming from the Land Of 10,000 Lakes I've also tried satelite, while out in the middle of a lake. Not to bad, but just like satelite tv, does loose reception.
I personaly run DSL

 

Anyone use Verizon for wireless broadband service? How is the coverage? I was about to get it when I looked at their coverage map. It is very confusing because they have so many different services and each service has a different coverage map. It looks like the wireless broadband coverage is only in the twenty largest cities, otherwise your screwed. Five miles out side Oklahoma City... nothin. Lafayette , La... jack.

 

verison dsl bradband at home and verizon air card on road laptop. in ny near newburgh,this thing is going great,seems alot faster than my sprint air card I had before this verizon.

 

Believe it or not I am in newburgh ny again checking out the site again. I am more than satisfied with my verizon air card,works on broadband most of the time,in wi,in oh,pa me,il. when my sprint phone contract runs out going to verizon sell phone the i will pay only 59.95 a month,instead of 79.95.

 

I used Verison internet using my phone as a modem and I got brodband speeds in and around the major cities except for Oklahoma City. Everywhere else I got dial up speeds. I don't recomend Verison if you want to use it outside of the citys.

 

I use DSL at home but I miss my cable. DSL is cheaper, but I have problems connecting to game servers and get kicked out a lot. I never had problems with my cable except for the price. For Internet surfing, I have no problem with DSL. I just don't play games that much anymore.

 

I have to agree. Cable is a better alternative. Usually faster download speeds (depends on the cable company)... Though I don't really have trouble connecting to any game server using DSL.
