Re: Internet speeds
Meh...148 kilobits. Thats a wireless connection via pci to my toshiba cable modem, which hopefully explains the reason that my internet is much, much slower than average connecticut cable.
(802.11b)

Re: Internet speeds
Heh. I'm still stuck on 640k/180k DSL. Same price ($50/mo) and same speed since we first got it 4 years ago. It's a rip-off.. but there's no competition.

Re: Internet speeds
I got 2.4 megabits per second. This is through a SMC router then through my Motorola cable modem. This was all hard wired, I didn't have any of my laptops on to go through my wireless cards (802.11b) and my D-Link base antannea first before going to the router.

Re: Internet speeds
I used to have either 1.6 or 1.8 Mbps for $40 per month but that was only a trial and now I'm at about 300K. I'll be switching to 1.6 Mbps DSL for $30 per month.
