So i’ve been using Netzero dial up internet for the past couple years, but i really want internet that allows me to download, watch videos, and pretty much do anything A Lot faster. I want to know what is the best internet provider with the fastest speed, what the price is (under $50), and if i can info on how to actually get it, that would be great.

Also, i want something that won’t use up my phone line. Thanks

I am getting a new laptop soon and I’m wondering how Internet cafes work. Do they use WIFI? Will I need to buy any extra equipment to acess the Internet or will they just have a cord that I can plug into my computer?
Thanks!

Our computers are growing faster and more powerful by the day. Their rate of growth never ceases to slow. Judging by this mindset of speeds that keep advancing, one would imagine that the internet providers must also keep up a steady rate of growth.

However, it seems if anyone isn’t keeping up with current technology, it is the communication providers. Computers have doubled in speeds, yet DSL and cable internet speeds remain the same for residential consumers as they were 5 years ago.

So how are they going to bring us the advances in residential connection technology that we are bound to receive?

I am planning on getting xbox live for my xbox 360, but I do not have a router and my DSL modem only has one ethernet input. Can I interchange the internet and xbox cables whenever I want to use either one without connectivity problems with either device?

I recently bought a nokia 770 internet tablet, it says that I access the internet through wifi or cellphone. Can someone give me the information on wifi? What is it? How do you use/activate it and are there any fees? Do I need services like an internet provider with monthly fees? Are there any other things that I may need to purchase?

doitmyself asked:


When weather is less than app. 80 degrees I have internet service. When it gets hot I lose service. The cable company installed it on the eave of the roof, but laid the 75 ohm cable across the roof. I moved the cable so that it no longer ran across the roof and gained another couple of hours during the day of connection time.

One of the contractors they sent said that if we could use the outdoor cabling the company uses we would probably be fine, but the company won’t allow them to use it indoors.

Since we have no crawl space to run wires. Do they make heat resistant 75 ohm cabling? Or can I increase the signal to the cable modem with an amplifier. The cable company hasn’t offered any options except drilling through the walls, which really won’t help. I have 3 TV’s and my cable modem. TV pictures are fine. Internet service works great when it is up and running.

Any ideas?
Internet service goes down when sun is shining and above 80 degrees. ISP has been out and says house need to be rewired with new RG6 cable. I rerouted their installation so that 50′ of app.350′ of outside cable was no longer laying on roof of house (took 50′ off roof and ran that through eave of house and now I get about 2 more hours of internet service each day – TV service is always fine). ISP has checked signal coming to house from pole and says it is sufficient. They last guy out said that heat was a factor. I asked about a signal booster and they said they didn’t like to do that, but I have a friend who said they installed one for him. I think the run from the pole to the house is too long and since it is in full sun all day much of the signal is lost before it gets to me. I need someone with technical expertise to explain what’s happening. Does anyone have any ideas? Do you know of a cable from high heat installations? What kind of booster can I get to install in the house?
We can’t drill through wall because there are 3 TV’s and internet service in different rooms to they have to go throughout the house. Drilling would only bring it into one room.

Christopher S asked:


If an internet service provider, provides internet, how do they connect, if they use another service provider, then where does that provider get access to the internet? If they use a server then how does the server get access and if there is one universal service provider then how did that one get access, and if you can use a server to get an ISP, then couldn’t anyone just buy a server and get free internet excluding the server cost?

Sorry if this question doesn’t make sense, as I don’t know that much about internet settings like these and internet connection with Wii.
If the question doesn’t make sense could you try explaining the whole wireless internet thing.
Where do I look to find my wireless router security ID?
