I also have Comcast cable modem. Not ever having another, what's wrong with it? I constantly get fast connections, I am able to download at incredible rates, listen to radio uninterrupted, watch great flash movies, and more. Beats DSL anyday.

1.5M/128k cable modem. although for $10 more a month I can get 3.0M/256k. When I get my next two paycheeks (in five weeks) i'm upgrading. than it'll take only 30 minutes to download a CD worth's of stuff! (700 MB)

I have a 56k modem that once connected at about 7.2 kbps. Now it's connecting at 44.0 kbps. Still, I want DSL dammit!

DSL. Cox Cable Internet was the worst connection I have ever experienced. A 14.4k modem was 50 times faster. I know, because I clocked the speeds. At least with DSL the speeds are decent.

ADSL. It's made for 640K, but it goes a bit faster than that.

ADSL, 768/128.

Not the fastest, but it definately gets the job done to my satisfaction. Now if Optimum Online would stop dragging their collective asses and get service out here...

That is impossable if some one has a T 3, they would have to pat $350 a month for that service.

For my home, I have DSL

Well at work I have downloaded at up to 3000k/s since I am on direct fiber into the local isp. I am told it could be much faster but don't know if I believe that.

but at home I download at 3.01k/s when it is going fast,

yes I hate it at home. :p

I have 56K in my room, but we also have DSL in our home office. I really want my own DSL connection, because 56K gets pretty slow sometimes.

Currently, this computer is at 56K, but my parents are constantly trying to get a fast connection established.
