we have peak.

Peak DSL, not Peak Wireless... they might be able to hook you up with a faster connection... (*might* --- I don't know too much about their network, I have only talked with their engineers twice... and that was awhile back)

We have DSL, Wireless and Cable available here....cable is about 3-4 times faster than the wireless....and the wireless is about that much faster than the DSL...the DSL is barely faster than dial-up....except that the upload and download streams are virtually identical...guess I'll keep my cable.

At my house I can only get wireless or dial-up.... in the city limits there is no cable. DSL and wireless are pretty close to each other in speed. We can push 20Mbps over DSL to most people (download) and about 1-2Mbps upload over the phone lines.

The wireless is usually around 6Mbps/6Mbps for most users, but some get 10Mbps/10Mbps via wireless...

At my house, I get 12Mbps/12Mbps :-D For $29.95/month I can't ask for any more :-D

Boy, does that take me back. I used to work for a Mack Truck dealership, and I had a couple Mack Bulldogs I always threatened to mount on one of the cars. I wonder what it would look like on the Lexus.


Hmmmm. I wonder what happened to them.


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!
