    I'm thinking about sticking the 56k dail-up modem under the car wheel and keep going over it. Yep I can imagine it now. The crunching sounds of freedom

    Thanks for the report. Hopefully your next report will be a positive one and you'll be up and running with DSL.

    My ADSl was turned on today and I couldn't be happier. I went to http://pcpitstop.com and ran full test. Main thing I was worried about was speed. I order the 512/128 package. From pc pit stop it said bandwidth download was 484 Kbits/sec. The bandwidth upload was 134 Kbits/sec. My average ping is 91 ms. Ping loss was 0% As you can see not a bad connection. It is very close to what promised speeds are. Hopefully I'll stay happy.

    Hi all, I'm not here for me but for my brother. He wants to know why he has a 3.5 meg a sec cable connection and get kicked out of enemy territory, soldier of fortune, and unreal tournament 2004 for having a high ping. His average ping is 15 to 25. I told him it could be because of ping spikes. That is they only thing I can think of.
