I have cable modem, so I pay $10 a month to get the sub-basic cable. Every cable system has one, but they don't advertise it

I believe that's an FCC mandate.

The only option I have of anything faster than a 56k is using both of my phone lines and a "shotgun modem" to double the speed, no DSL out here way out away from any town, could get the Starband from Dish but its around $100 a month, I hear its 10 times faster than DSL, not good for gaming cause of the uplink delay, its a pure satellite feed.

In retrospect I wish I had it two weeks ago, its on my buy list right now.
