Comments:
<0> perhaps more so than dsl or cable
<1> in fact ive noticed some irc servers even block aol users lol
<2> dialup is reliable?
<2> haha
<3> hmm so about $74 AUD / month
<3> and what speed do you get for that Fr4z
<4> I hate AOL becuase they use ****y non stanard software thats harder to support
<1> 8mb
<0> lazerbeak: exactly
<2> aol has a dialer now
<3> nice
<3> what upload speed?
<2> so you don't have to load their software
<2> just their dialer
<0> I have gay *** proprietary software
<1> bout half a meg:(
<0> hate*
<3> dang
<3> still
<3> much better than australia
<3> man **** australia
<3> land of ****ty broadband
<1> lol
<0> I have 8/768
<1> well. im actually only recieving 4.6mb:|
<3> residential customers only had dialup available when the rest of the world was eyeing adsl2 lol
<3> well im paying more
<4> I think you have to use thier dailer
<3> for 1.5Mbit
<1> but thats due to my distance from the telephone exchage
<0> yeah eelmoo, but
<1> lazer...
<4> it isnt just a fancy windows front end
<0> australia is 99% boondocks
<1> you dont need to install anything for aol broaband
<3> boondocks ?
<0> country
<3> ahh ok
<3> yes we are a very large country spread out over m***ive distances with low population density
<0> it's all about population
<0> and where theres population
<0> there's cities
<3> like japan
<0> and that's where you find broadband deployment
<3> lots of ppl cramped into a tiny space
<0> yeah
<1> with tiscali i was only paying 17.99 pm for unlimited 8mb adsl
<1> BUT
<0> japan is probably all wired
<3> run a mile of cable in japan and you get 10000 customers run a mile in australia and you get 100
<0> lol
<3> usage limits?
<3> still
<3> the federal government shuld do something about it
<3> they are working on it
<3> but they take so long
<1> it was always slow, disconnecting, tech support ****ed, they were overcharging me, and even tho it was unlimited it had a fair usage policy
<1> and capped p2p
<3> i say just use afew billion dollars to get the ball rolling for a national fiber to the home network
<0> when some ISP starts capping me
<1> the max speed i got was 2.5mbs
<0> is when they lose my business
<3> and leap frog other countries
<1> even tho i was syncing at 6.2 meg
<3> ahh ok
<3> capped p2p wuld be annoying
<0> dsl teh **** :/
<1> aol is apparently being bought out by sky:|
<1> the uk section is anyway
<0> that would make sense
<0> since
<1> i just hope they dont introduce usage limits
<0> you know,
<0> aol stands for AMERICA online
<0> lol
<1> lol
<1> coulda called it eol:P
<0> im sure aol has some kind of usage cap, just like comcast
<1> right now i download around 2 terrabytes per month
<0> but it's "invisible"
<0> okay, maybe not
<0> lol
<1> so a 40 gig cap isnt gonna make me happy
<0> 2tb....thats a lot of data
<1> nah they are 100% unlimited
<1> some people have complained at being capped at 512k in the eavenings. but thats not consistant
<3> lol
<0> well, if you call comcast they'll tell you they have no caps also
<0> but
<0> i've read on dslreports.com
<3> how on earth do u dload 2TB a month!?
<0> that some users have been sent notices about downloading waayyy too much
<1> yeah most company have somekinda cap somewhere. but aol apparently doesnt
<1> elmooo i ust do:P
<5> define cap
<5> you're all capped
<3> im on an unlimited isp done about 50gb in 16 days
<5> cap on speed or cap on transfer
<1> both
<1> unlimited on both with aol
<3> im not capped
<0> transfer, symbolik
<1> well
<3> i can dload as much as i like no capping no excess usage fees
<5> unlimited speed on a dsl line would be much more than a home connection
<5> same with cable
<3> unless u define my plans 1.5mbit speed as teh cap
<1> well, not unlimited speed as my line canonly do upto about 8 meg so
<5> your speeds are all capped
<3> 1.5mbit is the fastest my exchange supports
<1> yeh were talking about usage limits symol
<1> u in uk too elmooo?
<1> brb beeeeeeer
<3> i guess if thats a cap
<3> its because the wires dont support more than 1.5mbit
<3> hence the slow wires capping me at 1.5mbit
<3> i guess even if they did support 8mbit i'd still be capped
<3> because their didnt exist a nice 10Gbit fiber connection which caps me
<3> Fr4z: im in australia the land of slow broadband
<3> :(
<3> australia ****s in terms of broadband
<1> lol
<3> other than that its a great cuntry
<1> least you have nice weather
<3> yeah
<3> hows the weather in uk?
<3> cold?
<1> well
<3> its pretty cold here in canberra
<1> been really hot the last few weeks
<1> but the last 2 days have been pouring with rain
<1> we had the hottest day ever in the uk this year lol
<3> cool
<1> but that didnt evvect me. that was down south for the londoners and ****:|
<1> effect*
<1> hmm
