Can you answer penylane420’s question about DSL?:
we only have 1 cable company out here and that’s time warner, and one phone company and it’s embarq. It sucks and they both charge a lot for internet access. Are there any other companies that provide high speed internet that I can check to see if they are available in my area?

DSL Feedback: Well, what are do you live in to start with?
DSL Feedback: Hughes. It’s sattelite, and it’s very expensive.
DSL Feedback: Look in the phone book otherwise nope no other way
DSL Feedback: satellite companies but they charge more than cable.
DSL Feedback: Well, the price is also up there, but:
Satellite internet. You put a dish on your roof. I use it, because I live in the boonies (no cable), and am too far from the phone company switches to get DSL. Works great.
DSL Feedback: Only thing left is Verizonwireless…but it seems to be geared more for business than for personal use, they call it broadband and minimum is $60/month. You get a card that plugs into your laptop. There’s also satellite, I’ve never priced it so don’t know what they charge.
DSL Feedback: For highspeed dial up all you need to do is use firefox instead of internet explorer with the faster fox extension with regular dial-up. All the highspeed dial up is use a different compression rate than regular, which firefox does by it’s nature. Not to mention firefox isn’t bogged down with all the extra stuff IE has.
