That's the maximum bandwidth. You'll never have all the time that ammount. Ask them what's the minimum bandwidth guarantee and the usual one. They should tell you because it's written in the contract!

Get the free, no post charges, http://ubuntu.org so that the thing actually runs about 50X faster, is virus free, and at 64 bit, the video is like, fantastic!\n\nMicrosoft tried to put out a 64 bit OS, that seems to have failed...\n\nWhy would anyone run a Ferrari on diesel fuel?  That is what 32bit or 64bit Microsoft on a true 64bit hardware system is like! \n\nOr, search the http://livecdlist.com for any of the 24 systems that are true 64 bit!  All are FREE!!!

Did you read the agreement when you signed up for free shipping? Do you have it to read? They are stalling because they have a lot of  shipping between now and Xmas and I guess it's in the contract. But check it out.

Software upgrade is useless (but can be done anyway). The only upgrade i can recommend is to get a PCMCIA USB 2.0 adapter card. But be aware that with this card the speed (e.g. with an external hard disk) will only be increased about 6 times and not 40 times like many vendor promise (PCI specifications for notebooks - they are hardly known!).\n\nPCMCIA USB 2.0 adapter\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16839101111

BellSouth has a $25/mo plan. It is 256/128. I have that at my office and it is more than adequite. If you notice most sites only let you download at 150kbs to 350kbs. Unless you are running several computer or updating computers while trying to surf the net you will not notice the difference. \ni did a major security update for a customer today, AVG, Spybot, SpywareGuard, SpyBlaster, Defender, and SyGate and they never topped 300kbs and that was with Cox Cable at my home. 6Mb&#92;768kbs. Tell BellSouth you want to downgrade to the DSL Lite package. They do not care. \nFYI Cox offers a similar package of 256kbs/256kbs for $25/mo

I used it for awhile, but all I saw was additional pages being cached' for faster access. I also ran into a couple of issues when going to Virtual Privacy Networked (VPN) sites, and occasionally my anti virus over reacted to some web pages and froze me out (as I had it set). Not long after I installed it and really haven't had any problems since.\nI think if you're using a dial-up modem then you'll probably see more dramatic results. If you're running DSL/CABLE/ or T- connection then you probably won't see as much improvement. Oh yeah, and the little accelerator clock that says you've saved??,minutes is pretty useless unless you have to clock you Internet time. (IMHO)

I do and I love it! It's soooo much faster then Netflix! At least in our area! \n\nWe have the 3 movie deal and then you get the 2 in store coupons as well! \n\nAs for the delivery it does take a little time, if I mailed one back today it would show tomorrow in their system MOST of the time. Then I would have another one by Thursday, No later then Friday.\n\nReally is a good deal if you love movie watching!\n\n\n*** Please don't listen to CherrySplendor *** They don't charge to much! There better then Netflix and it's cheapier then going to get them yourself! I've had them since they started and I've had like 2 times where the DVD didn't show up and 1 broken DVD. All you have to is contact them and they send you out a replace ASAP! Guess " CherrySplendor " wasn't bright enough to read that section in her rental Queue!

from what i've read it's great if you are within a half mile of your local bt exchange. outside this range the band width drops considerably.\nfor example I'm supposed to be on a 1MB broadband and i'm about 1.2 - 1.5 miles from my local exchange. and my download speed averages about 112KBPs ok faster than dial up, but no good for downloading films if the recent download of windows VISTA is anything to go by. It took me the better part of 12 hours to download (with this being the ONLY activity my system was dealing with for the whole 12 hours). an age, unless you want to download a film in the morning ready to watch that night or the next day.\nbut if the bandwidth does increase then hey a great opertunity.\nas for the other ISPs my guess as they lease the lines from BT and rehire them to there customers they too are reliant on BT to increase bandwidth to ALL paying customers no matter what the distance from the exchange.\nIf cable was available in my area i'd seriously consider switching suppliers.

Sorry, I only know one person that has it & it isn't easy to get.\n\nTo tell you the truth it is so buggy he uses a dual boot system.

I really think its a scam. I had a friend who tried to get a free ipod on one of those things and it never happened. They ask for other people's emails so they are probably trying to get emails to send people junk mail. Or perhaps when you click on those ads, they put spyware on your compter. I think its best to avoid them.

Works fine for me.  What do you mean exactly?  Are you having problems understanding how Torrents work and so are confused as to what you need to do to start downloading stuff?  Or is Azureus whining about closed TCP/UDP ports? Or what?

Yes! Half the new stuff won't work with the firewall on and they've moved a lot of stuff off so it takes longer to get to the TV page, for instance. It sucks, basically.\n\nOh, and what's with the adverts? I'm sick of being offered a shaking can of f*cking whoopass! I've got my own can of whoopass, thanks!

High Speed Internet CSI kit\n\n\nOn May 1, 2003, SBC began offering Basic - S and Expert Plus promotions (defined below) in all regions except for the Northeast. Midwest Speed Tiers changed from 384 Kbps - 768 Kbps to 384 Kbps - 1.5 Mbps, and from 1.5 Mbps - 3 Mbps to 1.5 Mbps - 6 Mbps. Any Members with the original Speed Packages of 384 Kbps - 768 Kbps or 1.5 Mbps - 4 Mbps in the Midwest.\n\nThe following products were added to all regions.\n\nStatic IP Low Speed (up to 384 Kbps) \nDynamic IP High Speed (1.5 Mbps - 6.0 Mbps) \nOn March 25, 2004, SBC began offering the 1.5 Mbps - 3 Mbps Expert product for both Consumer and Business and discontinued offering the 1.5 Mbps - 6 Mbps Speed Tiers Product in all regions except in the Northeast.\n\nOn April 26, 2006, SBC began offering the Speed Tiers Elite product in all regions. The new speed tier is 3.0 Mbps - 6.0 Mbps with both Static and Dynamic IP capabilities. The product name is DSL Elite,available at 6500 ft (CO) and 8500 ft (RT). This product is available to both business and residential consumers. This offering allows SBC to compete with cable TV companies and to match products that are being offered with FTTX (Fiber to the Home) speeds.\n\nOnce you order for SBC (actually AT&T now) DSL, you would be provided with the equipments that you would be needing for your DSL Internet connection (such as the dsl modem, filters, data and ethernet cables) so you won't be needing to buy them. But if you are planning to connect several computers to the internet the you would need to buy a router for that or you can also tell the agent that you would be needing the 2wire modem/router (also capable of wireless connection) because you would be setting up several computers. I'm not sure if you're gonna be charged for this kind of modem/router though.\n\nI would have been able to provide how much their service meight cost for you if you only provided what city and state you are in. But for pricing and billing inquiries,I suggest you call this number 1 888 792 3751, this is their number for orders and 1 866 722 9246 for their sale department.\n\nOr you can also visit the following websites:\nwww.sbcpromotions.com \nwww.sbcsignup.com \ndsl.yahoo.com

Anyone who uses these network WILL get a virus. I assume you are also NOT running an antivirus program, right?\n\nGood luck...\n\nTake it to a pro, have them teach you about internet security, clean your computer (if possible), and protect your computer.\n\nExpect to pay about $200\n\nTell me - would you learn how to drive before you went cruising down the interstate? Of course! If you didnt, MOST LIKELY you would get in a crash that will cost you money, right?\n\nSame thing here. Take a computer class or at least an overview. You might like it and end up going deeper into it...

Hi PARADOX,\n\nIt might still be kind of buggy and those features don't even work yet.  If the trialware isn't working to your satisfaction then it's a good thing that you're not out any money, I guess.  ;-)  Look elsewhere.\n\nI love downloading stuff at versiontracker\n\nhttp://www.versiontracker.com/\n\nDo a search there and see if you can find anything more worthy.  Good luck.\n\n--Rick
