This is the first year I WASN'T in dialup land. I really feel for you.

Hopfully, there will be not catastrophes in the meantime. Knock on wood.

It's ok Jesper, I remember back when I still had AOHell, it was painful.

No siree, none of that fancy-schmanzty "decent internet connection" stuff for me, my parents said it was too expensive. Now here I am with Broadband, and it's costing us less than 56K did. Shows how much they know.

I don't think the fact that he must use dial up again to get on the internet is why he makes this thread, but rather to point out if his server goes down these next 6 days, there isn't he can do about and no point in complaning about it since he warned us he is out.

Have fun. As for the server... *knock on wood*

I really wish you wouldn't pick at 56K, as I'm forced to use it. Except at my office, where the computers don't support AIM for some creepy reason (That is, I can get on and recieve messages but can't send messages, and miminizing windows makes them act glitchy when they reopen)...

So I'm pretty much screwed either way you look at it =/

It looks like I'm stuck with dialup for the foreseeable future, and because I'm in a rural area and the POP is at an exchange serving a different city than the exchange that I'm using, the actual speed is slow. The CO is at least a 6 mile drive away, and there seems to be no plans to serve DSL from it. Cable? not for miles.

On the bright side, I hear that the county plans to pave our road in a few months.

I had access via LAN during the 2002-2003 academic year at the University of the Ozarks. The whole campus, four hundred something resident students, computer labs, web and e-mail servers, and administration, was all connected by one big Ethernet LAN and to the Internet by a single T1 line through a NAT firewall.

Ive been with verizon DSL for about 5 or 6 months now and i pay about a dollar more than I did for dial up (I had AOL) best thing I ever did. Also verizon HQ is about 3 blocks from my house so range doesnt affect me one bit =)

Oh no, Dialup land again.

I hope you enjoy every moment of the torture that is dialup. Been using it for 5 years and still going strong.

Sigh.
