Would you upgrade your internet speed if..
 
You thought that you were getting less done, because of it?
I'm not, because I am very very efficient with multi-tasking..
It doesn't slow me down, but I think that it makes me less motivated to do something..

It's 1.5/256 :disgust
Money is tighter than an 18 year old dwarf pussy for now
It's $26 this way or $55 for 30/1.5 .. . .. tasty . . .
I guess fuck it $30 is NOTHING but at the same time I've been doing everything in the world to save money.. . . .

What would YOU do

96ukssob 09-02-2009 02:52 PM

is it a 30/1.5 or 3.0/1.5? big difference...

either case would probably be worth it if you will get more work done. when im traveling i often put things aside to do when i get back because internet speed is slow.

MrMaxwell 09-02-2009 03:16 PM

30/1.5
I'ma do it fuck it 30 is nothing

Loch 09-02-2009 03:18 PM

why not do it?
You dont have to get much more done for that kind of cash.

this morning I was just thinking that a person should have three different internet connections at home... dsl, cable, and an evdo wireless card :2 cents:

fusionx 09-02-2009 03:36 PM

I just upgraded from 1 meg to 2 megs at home. Woohoo! I'm on fire!

It's fine for the house. Only bad thing is the upload speed is only like .5 meg..

Jarmusch 09-02-2009 04:18 PM

1.5/256 should be plenty enough to browse GFY all day. :D

I'm about to move my equipment elsewhere so I can get a faster net connection. The price is no different whether I'm connected via ADSL1+ or ADSL2+, but I can only get ADSL1 in my home office... of course leasing another premises is going to cost a bit more. :1orglaugh

rowan 09-02-2009 07:10 PM

BTW, ADSL1 256/1500 is pretty easy to achieve, and 384/8160 is also likely... but don't expect 1000/30000 on ADSL2 unless you're sitting on the exchange techie's lap

i downgraded from the 10mbps/1mbps plan to the 5mbps/565k package which is the smallest they offer. i used to have the largest they offered. was curious if my workload would change if i switched and it did not at all. i always do my massive uploads while i sleep anyways so i really never noticed it and honestly i do not need download speed. to me it was always about the upstream, and when i had the 1mbps up it still was not fast enough to make me want to upload during the day. this way now i save over a hundred bucks a month.

This is pretty much it. I rarely stream anything except for XM/Sirius and troubleshooting; I don't need a hell of a lot of bandwidth, and I usually code remotely - not that that takes a fuckton of bandwidth. I could probably live on $20/mo DSL but I need to be more accessable than that.

CYF 09-02-2009 07:25 PM

30 bucks more per month for 30/1.5?

I'd do it. :2 cents:

Sharky 09-02-2009 08:47 PM

I enjoy my 25/25 connection from fios;-)

gecko 09-02-2009 10:01 PM

Yes.. I have 10mbs but I am thinking of upgrading to 15

stickyfingerz 09-02-2009 10:09 PM

My connection sucks.. :(

What would YOU do

My cellphone has quicker internet than that.. my office internet is 110/10 (for $55).

</end bragging>

Anyhow *I* would upgrade, since upload speeds are rather vital to me, not so much the down speed.

I pay $45 for 5/.5 :(

VeriSexy 09-03-2009 08:15 PM

I know I would...

TidalWave 09-03-2009 08:32 PM

Whats the point if you don't need the faster speeds? Save the $360/year.

Sly 09-03-2009 08:34 PM

Speed is very important to me, but I deal with a lot of videos... uploading and downloading. Me personally, I would absolutely do it, plus I can write it off.
