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.

Wish they would install it at work!

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.

DSL is really nice, we used to have 56k, and you'll die once you get dsl

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.
