We have DSL .. costs us $35.00 per month to have all 5 computers online at the same time. We like it a lot. Seldom have connection troubles .. fast enough to watch streaming video .. it's great.

I also have dsl at home. It is great and only costs $30/month. It was kind of a pain getting it set-up (had to work between the phone company and the dsl provider) but it was well worth the hassle!

Hi Slackerboy, I have cable and love it. I bought my own modem, so only pay about $34.00 a month and yes, it is definitely worth it. You're always connected and don't have to dial up every time.

I have AT&T Broadband (formerly MediaOne) and pay $45 a month and am thinking about DSL, as recently I have noticed lack of upload speed (which, as a game host for First Person Shooters, is a prime requisite.) I am thinking of going with EarthLink DSL, but haven't commited.
