suggest me which type of internet service I should sign up. DSL dial up or cable broadband ( comcast). That should be effective ( download and cost).

cable

Personally, I prefer dial-up. Of course, DSL is cheap but it is slow and cable is fast but it also si expensive. So, dial-up is the way to go(y)

pupiffy, why would u want dial-up against dsl? DSL may be slow compared to cable, but is faster than dial-up. And the price for dial-up and DSL - almost the same.

it depends on your location (east or west). I have verizon dsl for $ 14.95, and it works great. You can't beat the price -- better than some of the dial up price out there. Verizon had this deal with yahoo when I got the package. Check them out if the service is available in your area, and the package options that you have.

I'm loving the price and service in my location. Ofcourse you hear different opinions, but definitely worth trying.

Compcast Cable.

katrina!

duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

COMCAST da best !

Who says Cable is better than DSL??It all depends on speed of your DSL.If u pay $$$ for DSL with 48 Mbps would it be slower than cable???? Cable has its disadvantages too. Best is it doesn't matter DSL or CABLE ...go for service provider which gives you comparative rate for the speed.

because of cell phones, most people don't need a regular phone these days so why pay extra for DSL (with additional regular phone)?

Well you don't need to have regular phone to have DSL.Most of the apartment have Telephone lines right???you can have their service thru the number but not have phone service.
Anyways ..in cable there is lot of interference problems but not in DSL. And normal Cable is generally faster than normal DSL.I have DSL and i pay $$ to get 48MBPS i would have got better package deals but i just left it .
It is always good to go with package deals..whether DSL or Cable.

I will choose DSL over Dail up, if I already have a land phone line. I saw the comcast add for new costumers which includes phone+cable+Internet for $33 for a year, which is great deal.

$33 for a year? or $33/month for a year? If so, how much after that?

Heheeh sorry, its 33/month for year. Don't know after that may around $60. After a year, there will be other cheaper option anyway.

that's a great deal! i'm going to switch now...it's $33/month

who says DLS is slow?mine is 100 Mbps (just checked to confirm and not showin off hai ;oP hehe have maxed out our limit on the account for more than a week now so kinda suffering :oS hehe...arghhh!!why dun my housemates agree on upgrading to bigger package!seems like size does matter here?;oP hehe..)

anyways rahulvai..i heard from some frens in US the net packages they have is by speed re..instead of capacity(?)..which sounded too good to be true!:o| hehe..so i think anythin is fine..DSL(as long as a phone line or dun mind gettn one ;oP) or Cable..as long as the package is good enuf for u :oD..and the price too ;o)..seriously im still shocked its so cheap there!:o| hehe...wasnt much help was i?was i even tryn to help?hah ;oP hehe
-----------
puppify..just curious(would u be nice enuf to appease it?;oP hehe)..were/are u postin/surfin using a dial up?..if u r...i can feel u!and i gues u can feel me!:$ hah ;oP..

seriously!speed give me wat i need!!!:oD

33/month is quite a bargain when you can have the internet and cable at the same time!

I'm going to google if it is available in my area. Thanks! :)

Sajhafuser,

It is $99/month altogether. You will have to get the bundle of cable TV+Internet+digital phone for $33/month per service. I might be wrong, call comcast to make sure.

Just curious, but why sajhauser's name is distorted to Sajhafuser? :-s

Shiiiiiit sorry guys, I was wrong. Its $99.00/month for a year
