Ok, so I'm stuck with crappy internet that is provided through my student apartment complex. It's 1.5mbps. Yes, that's not a typo. Anyway, it sucks when I have to download anything significant that I pretty much have to download it overnight. I'll be moving out in about a year and hope to have my own fast internet. I'm curious to see how fast OT is and how much it's setting them back per month. So I'll start.

Company: NTC/Shentel

Speed 1.5mbps (160kb/s - yes, it makes me cry

Cost: Included in rent

I feel sorry enough for my self :cry:

But yeah, I live in a rural area, so I have no choice. You learn to live with it. I can't use youtube and Itunes downloads take forever, but at least I've got OT right? :P

I use my Universities wireless internet a lot to compensate.

Pretty bad from AT&T 768 kbps $19 a month for a year, then it might be about $29 after that....(well, could be worse) I used to have Comcast faster and all, but I really like saving some money on bills these days.

AT&T did that to me, charged me $50/mo for 256k when the house was supposed to be getting at least 3mb/s. They then proceeded to tell me the area has no more DSL support....gee...thanks for letting me know BEFORE I call lol

I am supposed to get 10 mbps down and 768 kbps up through Centurylink but their service has so many outages I find myself getting slower than dial-up speeds in some occasions. I pay about $41 a month for it including taxes. I've seriously considered switching to Time Warner (the only other choice I have in my area unless I want to use dial-up, mobile broadband, or Hughesnet) but I've heard some horror stories about them too and I would be paying over ten dollars more a month for the same speed.

at my last place it was supposed to be 32 mbps but I got upward of 50 at times, and like 8 mbps uploads, and it was like $40/month for first 6 months and like $60 after that, they don't offer those rates for that price anymore, they do offer a 50 mbps plan but it's like $100/month

Wow D:, that's robbery, not just ripping you off.

40$/m, If I remember correctly, would have to grab a bill to be sure, too lazy.

My last Internet provided also capped our usage to 40GB a month, really annoying because I always went over! My new provider gives us unlimited which is how it should be for everyone!

My old IP address on Firefox had a download speed of 20.76 Mb/s, an upload speed of 3.48 Mb/s, and a ping of 78 ms. Now my IP address has changed, and I get a download speed of 5.44 Mb/s, an upload speed of 3.20 Mb/s, and a ping of 138 ms. I don't remember the cost, though. :(
