    What kind of Internet connection do you use?

    Asking just because I'm curious... how many people out there are stuck on dial-up and how quickly newer technology such as BPL is spreading.

    I'm sure I forgot something, feel free to yell at me for it.

            Wireless, because I can't get DSL.
            I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                    DSL at home. Not sure what we have at work, but it's at least T1.

                          I had PowerLine once.. it was okay and by far the cheapest "broadband" offer (256/256 for 24€ a month). The good thing was that you could go into the garden, and plug the modem into the same multibase as you'd plug in the laptop.

                          OTOH, with the distribution of wireless this is becoming less a factor... powerline is just like any other technology, with the big disadvantage that I think the bandwidth (and therefor the max number of customers) is quite limited.

                          With the new "DSL2" technology giving you around 10Mbit download and 1Mbit upload, powerline will only be able to compete providing cheap entry level broadband access.

                          Sattelite is only good for download and Wireless still comes with too little a range, though the next generation WiMax sounds promising.

                            We used to have DSL but had to downgrade because it is too expensive.

                            Now we have some form of 56k I think.
