PeoplePc is cheap $10.95/month.\n\nBut if you're trying to get a cheap internet, it has to be Dial-Up otherwise it's expensive like DSL, Wi-Fi or Cable, Satellite etc.\n\nBellSouth offers you Dial-Up Internet service for $4.95 per month IF you have a BellSouth CompleteChoice Plan and a BellSouth Unlimited Long Distance Plan both plans are $49.99(Plans) + $4.95(Dial-Up).\n\nOther option is Verizon, log on to www.verizon.com and you can get High Speed DSL, $14.95 - $17.99 Up to 768Kbps.\n\nAnother option is Earthlink DSL $12.95 (For the first 6 months) Very fast and cheap try it! It's  the best option.\n\nI hope that this answer was helpful to you.\nRegards!

Go with www.frevety.net. They have an amazing deal. Get 600gb monthly bandwidth, 75000mb of storage, and host up to 25 different web sites for just $90 every 14 months (that's $6.43 per month). They list it as $7.50 per month, but then they later throw in another 2 months. Best deal anywhere hands down. Their customer support replies within 30 minutes every time as well!

If you plan to connect thru a cellphone, it'll never be as fast as real broadband or cable. \n\neven if you have wireless, you first need to subscribe to an intenet connection say roadrunner broadband, then install a wireless router to the cable modem. your laptop's wireless card will then connect with the Wireless router. \n\nRoadrunner is good, SBC Yahoo DSL is good too, but DSL is a lil slower than Broadband. I think Comcast is good too, if they have service in your area.

Ok, I'm confused.  If you use to have DSL but you can't afford it, and You don't want dial up, I dont' see an alternative for you. \n\nCable is more then DSL and DSL is more then Dial UP. \n\nHaving DSL or Cable is not like having Dial up.  You can't just call up and say I want internet.  \n\nYour cable company can only provide you with cable service. \n\nAnd a phone company/ISP with DSL can only provide that. \n\nMost Internet service providers, at least the really big ones, provide you with an "internet package".  Meaning they give you browsers, web space, email addresses, and various other things. \n\nHowever, there are Providers out there that offer ONLY the actual service, and nothing else. \n\nI mean there are a ton of Dial up places that charge you like 8.00 a month for service.  But that's what you get is the service... and nothing else.  And with some people, what else do you need.  You can get free web space, you can get free email all online..\n\nThere is a site called www.thelist.com which is a HUGE list of Internet service providers.  You can search by zip code, or state, etc.  Then go visit them to see what package is the best for you.

Most likely, the fastest thing you'll want to afford is your local Cable TV/Internet provider.\n\ncheck out http://dslreports.com to see what's available/good in your area

I used to have wanadoo as my isp. I had to give up the contract eventually as it was costing me too much to call their tech support.\n\nhttp://forums.broadbandbuyer.co.uk/forum_posts.asp?TID=2929&PN=1\n\nCheck out that link. Or google wanadoo livebox and read for yourself.\n\nGood luck mate

Vonage is pretty cheap, but you need either DSL or Cable setup. Problem with DSL is that you need a phone landline for it, and vonage requires a high speed internet connection. So there are people who dont want a phone line after getting vonage, but you need it for DSL. I would get cable and then get vonage as my phone provider.\n\nI use the vonage plan where I pay $20 for unlimited calls, both local and long distance.

why would you go through all that trouble instead of just upgrading the service your boradband offers. Frankly it'd be cheaper to...say pay i think 30 bucks a month more for roadrunner's 5.0 Mbs-8.0 Mbs plan.

I'm assuming your laptop has a wireless network card built in already.  If it doesn't, your local computer store should be able to set you up with one for 802.11g for $40-100.  While you're there, it might be worth buying a cat5 cable, for connecting to plain old wired networks. \n\nBefore a trip, search google for free wireless and the name of the city you're going to.  You'll probably find a few libraries, coffee shops, an airport, ect...  If you're staying in a hotel, ask them if they offer free Internet access, and whether it's wireless.\n\nIf you can't find good sources of free wireless, most towns will have an Internet cafe, which tend to be $5-15 an hour, and several Starbucks.  Starbucks has rates similar to an Internet cafe, but also offers a monthly plan which is a good deal if you're in there several days a month.  It seems to be popular with business travelers, and I like it.\n\nOther people have mentioned getting a cell phone Internet plan (i.e. Verizon, Cingular) which is a good idea if you want to have Internet access literally everywhere (or at least, everywhere you can get good cell phone service).  It's likely to be faster than dial up, but not incredibly fast.  Prices for this have fallen in the last few years, it's still a bit expensive, but is getting fairly reasonable.  When you buy the service, they'll sell you a cell phone card for your laptop.\n\n(By the way, DSL and wireless are not the same thing at all, but there are several companies who sell high speed internet with wireless connections, which they call "wireless DSL".  Apparently, they just call it that because many people associate DSL with high speed.  If there is a company that sells this in areas you visit a lot, it's certainly worth considering, otherwise, I wouldn't put any thought into it at all.)

Try t-mobile they do high speed broadband for laptops at £29 a month with 3GB.It is enough for most people.The downside is you can't use any kind of messenger(msn,yahoo or skype) for this price. If you opt for the £44 deal then you can use this service and you get 10GB allowance which is quite good.I live in a shared house and now all my flatmates have computers which creates a risk to my computer.I'm thinking of getting one as well this Christmas.

Call your provider, and ask them for all the telephone numbers you can call to get online. When I had dial up, they had 8 different numbers that we could try, and the one where you get the fastest service, put that one in your computer, for the one to call each time. You should check it every 3 or 4 weeks, to make sure you are getting the fastest service that they have.They even might be posted on their website..good luck

Sorry there is no way to speed up dial up. If you already have cable then DSL would be a good deal\nE

Find out what company the neighbors have it from. If you cant get it from those companies than maybe your house is the cut of line of where the service reaches. Get cable internet it is faster. if your neighbors live super closeby you could always (with neighbor's permission) go out and buy a wireless laptop and a wireless Router. Then your neighbor can hook up the wireless router (you need one that can reach far from your neighbors house to yours) to their internet. You can pay the neighbor an agreed upon fee every month so you can share their internet service. Both of you can use the internet at the same time yet your laptop at your house can pick up the router signal so you can use it at home without bothering them. Therefore your neighbor has a great deal because you could split the DSL cost with them! So if it is say 14.99 a month it would be so cheap for each of you!
