    We have FiOS - fiber optic from Verizon. It's great, more reliable than Comcast was, but not on your poll, and not available everywhere yet!

    I have the slow old Dial up. From where I live, I can't get anything else yet. Not far from where I live, they have DSL. I'll be glad when we get it here.

    We enjoyed and supported our cable modem for a long time. Then it really got screwed up, aand after many, many months of going through it, we finally switched to DSL. We also have a wireless network in our home. Unfortunately, our desktop computers (two of them) have died on us!!!!! I am on my husband's laptop, right now. The DSL has been pretty good. It is a 3.0 connection, but plenty fast for what we need.

    I'm not sure exactly what it is (as far as DSL or anything) but I know we have Roadrunner. However, we also get our Cable TV from the same line, or almost same line. I'm not too internet savvy, if you can tell.

    Roadrunner is cable. We have Optimum Online, and were one of the first to get it in our area, cashing in on a promo 4 years ago.

    DSL, on the other hand, is a dedicated line.

    Charter Cable 3.0mp. The internet works fine, it's just the stupid computer we have problems with.

    Connections

    I have a Flintstone-like MSN dial up on my web tv system. The only thing nice about it is that I can sit on the couch with my wireless keyboard and watch the internet on my regular 20" tv set. Is anyone else familiar with web tv?
