Until 2007? Woah, you were unlucky.
I remember that sound all too well from old times. I also remember how annoying it was to have someone call you while you were browsing the Internet, which would kick you out right away. |

I remember that sound as a childhood sound.
As for disconnections from a phone call? Bollocks to that. Try having a dedicated internet phone line. I know broadband was pre-2004 'cause it came before my first own compy.. The world could always use more heroes! |

I remember using Napster in 2000 on the 1.2M cable connection of the local Internet café. ____________________ I don't give a flying feather |

Happy to be on my 40M connection now
I could get 120M but I don't feel like paying 15 more bucks each month for soemthing I will hardly notice. I remember being like, "WOW this file downloads at 6-7 KB/s" and now it's like, "Why can only Microsoft servers, and popular torrents give me my 4-5 MB/s?" ____________________ I don't give a flying feather |

♥322 ✿4705 ★50 Posted by Trapster When it comes down to it, broadband isn't just faster, it's also a much more efficient use of the lines. |

It normally goes a lot faster than that.. Although, it's all over the place today.
Normally, it sits around the 8Mb/s mark.. Just not today. The world could always use more heroes! |

I remember this guy on the workhome dial-up connection in 2001. He started downloading a 400+ MB ISO at noon, and finished at 6:00 in the morning...
...to find the file was corrupted. Download accelerators suck. ____________________ I don't give a flying feather |
