    faster interweb :)

    1st off this is in this section because of the emotional attachment being the focus :)

    left my internet on last night so when i woke up i could get right on surfing as per usual
    so i wakes up and i try to sign back in msn, for sum reason id be signed out :( so i try and bam nothing, so ok i think lets try and browse make sure its not my connection..
    ...
    ...
    nothing :(

    my internet is deadddd!! or so i thought!

    so i reboot, reconnect and BAM i go from 576kbps to 1.1mbps :D

    i know most of u have faster conns but for me this is the sex :D

    Ouch >.< That kind of connection makes me cry, and reminds me of days of old -shudders-

    My mom would've been pissed if I would've made it stay on and not let it disconnect, as we only had one phone line in the house hehehe... Which meant I had to do all my downloading at night and all my big files with download manangers >.<

    150Kbps with Tiscali. Pfff. Small fries compared to you lot. It actually averages around 147.5 kbps.

    :(

    & I might have to get rid of this connection if I go to a Uni away from home cos it'd be a waste of my Dad's money to keep paying for the connection (

    DSL, it rocks, it has about 400kb download and over 200kb upload, and trust me, a higher download might get you a higher speed downloading on paper, but at the end of the day it's with file sharing that your upload really matter.

    Also it's totally unlimited, i could run a server here 24/7 and never have any problems.
