I have dial-up as well :-( It makes me sad to go online sometimes.

I'm connecting through wireless right now to someone in my neighborhood. It's not my connection, just an un passworded one :)

 

[Nic]

lol cool, didnt know you could un-password them

 

[ninja fetus]

you can't, someone never set up passwords on their wireless. Beware all you that don't have passwords on their network! I will steal your bandwidth!

 

[Nic]

Lol thats cool,, when I search for a wireless network I get one called Airport but it has a password so i cant get in :S

I forked out a whopping £18 a month for 512K broadband with Virgin.net, no contract, no connection fee and a free ADSL modem. About two weeks later my service got upgraded to 2.2Mg - FREE-OF-CHARGE!!! :waycool:

Richard Branson is God!

Letsee, I was on 512kpbs with PIPEX directly connected via ADSL USB modem to my computer, my mum connected to the internet through mine. After that I set up a file server downstairs that ran on Linux (much more stable), I had the modem connected to that one and me and my mum connected through that. Although it was a pain in the neck because there was a problem and we kept getting disconnected so I had to go downstairs and manually reset the connection.

Now though I've got an ADSL Router and Bridge so there's no need for the file server and it's sooooooooo much faster and easier to use. :D

Did I say Richard Branson was God? Check out this extract from an e-mail I recieved just today!

We just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know that we've doubled your monthly download allowance at no extra cost - ensuring you get even better value from Virgin.net Broadband.

Sweet dude, I wish they offered services where I live, sounds like an excellent opporation!

 

[matttibb]

I'm in such a dumb mood...how do I search for connections like previously mentioned? I'm wondering if anyone round here has a network that my router will pick up or however it works...

 

[WWR]

Monthly allowance? Those are the work of the DEVIL! I would fill a WHOLE MONTH's allowance in a few hours, I prefer no limits, even if I have to pay extra.

 

[Nic]

Lol ik know the feeling. I dont have an allowance either. Id fill it within the first night of having it
