      I have been trying in the past year to get some kind of good connection down the road to my house. I have called many places and gotten different answers. Here are some of the ones I get.

      - It will be available at your house in 21 buisness days we just need to get the cable.
      - It is allready there you just can't get it because your house is too far up on a hill.
      - It is not there and never will be
      - The last person who owned your house didn't pay there bill and we need you to fax information over to us.

      Most of these responses were from comcast.

      - It has been 21 business days.
      - It is NOT here. I have asked nieghbors.
      - It should be as we are surounded by people with dsl less than a mile up and down the road.
      - The DIRT road behind our house has high speed internet.
      - My father built this house and I have lived here for the past 9 years.

      If someone could please help me on what to do that would be wonderful. Currently I am using a Verizon air-card with a usage limit of 5gigabytes. I have purchased 2 cards and I still tend to go over from time to time.

      hughes net satellite internet. it's expensive and isn't nearly as good as dsl/cable, but it will work for you. latency used to be a big issue, it's not AS big any more.

      So you can't just get dsl instead of cable? if you have a phone jack in your house you should beable to get dsl.

      not necessarily. just because you have a phone does NOT mean you can get dsl.

      We got away from sattilite because of the terrible service. Hughes net has a 2gig limit on bandwidth and if you go over the speed gets slower and slower. By 3 gig it won't even make a connection.

      what needs to happen is you need to be an asshole to them and tell them to get their heads out of their asses and send a tech over

      Just called comcast and they have someone coming over to see if they can get it here. I am to call back in 5 days.

      Called verizon and got a guy with an attitude who said that playing WoW on dsl would go over their 300gig limit :(.

      Checked att before with no success.

      I have a 100gb limit and I play 5 accts 24/7 and im getting 10 more. I get up to maybe 50GB including surfing the web, updating these boards every 10 seconds (joke), downloading wow, downloading movies and tv shows (5 GB a week or more) and listening to music online
