Overclocker16 Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 Do you do enough to need the extra speed? Do you have the extra 45 per month to spare? That's basically it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DECwakeboarder Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 Basically do you have a server or not? 10 meg down is plenty, but the extra 1 up if you have a server could be a huge boost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
habitual geek Posted December 7, 2005 Posted December 7, 2005 (edited) what country do they offer those speeds for that price? not in the USA, not without some sort of catch like a bandwidth limit per month or something Edited December 7, 2005 by habitual geek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peshewah Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 I pay $15 for 26.4kbps. Look out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverfox Posted December 16, 2005 Posted December 16, 2005 i dont pay. i get 10mbit down and 10mbit up! wootage. sounds reasonably cheap, but compared to paying nothing (which i got the impression you indeed do pay zilch), is it worth it for you?

mantonr Posted December 17, 2005 Posted December 17, 2005 id keep paying nothing, unless you desperately need the speed. surely 10 down is enough isn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
