I used to have dial-up and it's really bad!!! I also hate it, now with my DSL, I'm happy, my DSL isn't so fast it's 256Kbps but it isn't slow, u know, Dial-up is always going down and it's really bad, a simple songs takes hours!!! Hmmm...u should consider buying DSL.

Lol, Dial-up is funny. I'm so glad I don't have Dial-up. I've got broadband so i'm alright
 . Unlucky mate  You should really get a good internet connection. Anything is better then dial-up.

Its true dude but you can't expect more from a dial-up connection.I myself hve a dial-up connection but dude I would like to use this one and not to switch to DSL because my net connection is completely free from 11:00 pm-8:00 pm and When I have to download a big software or program or torrent then I download at night and If its too big then I keep my net connection running during that entire period.Approx 700 mb gets downloaded in 11 days.

When I had dial-up, I had patience.
Now I have a high-speed connection. Now I don't have patience. This is the upside to having a dial-up connection, because you aren't as ticked you don't have high speed internet. But after you have a high speed internet connection, the effect is magnified and it's not worth it unfortunately. |

I hate the though of dial-up we use to have it but we have broadband now and when i first used broardband i was like WOW! it was incredibly fast compared to dial-up and same here we could only go on at certain time because of dialing up it is a pain in the but having to do all of that stuff .
Kind regards, Jordan |

Hey ppl,
although I am using a Broadbnd but I feel that dial-ups are much better. 1. you can get access anywhere, if you have a telephone connection at your disposal 2. although the speed is very slow, but you get a unique IP address every time you dial, which is at times useful  3. It can be secured to an extent which you can never get with broadband. I wish I still had a Dial-up connection  p.s. Its just my opinion |
