if you can watch a youtube video without gagging over video stuttering, pauses and dropouts, that's prolly ok, unless you invite a bunch of teenagers over for online gaming :)

anyone who lives alone, like me, who can watch a video without problems prolly has enough bandwidth.

the only reason i care about speed is because i have about a dozen computers/tablets/etc connected and some of them run programs in the background.

I changed modems because i was just having problems with netflix.Now I am using a newer modem and bigger with more flashing lights. It is working better than the old one. does modems make a difference?

Good morning all. You guys get too chatty... lol

Hard to keep up in here. Have a great Sunday. I'm going to probably be in a bad mood today. But, once today is over the season is over. The pain will be over. lol.

So as the saying goes in Cleveland... "There's always next year..."

Maybe just maybe we can be the spoiler. Since that is all I have to look forward too.
Hah

I have TWC RoadRunner with the Turbo add on for $10 extra a month. This is my desktop at home. Do not have Roku on right now. It will lower the speed to 11Mbps.

Good morning, REOvil!

Dennis- the poodles are not allowed computer time anymore, so it is always just me using one device at a time. To watch YouTube, I start it, then pause while a bit of it downloads and then play. I rarely get to listen to an entire song without waiting a couple of times. Streaming movies & using Roku is not possible.
Yes, it is satellite. :(

i am not a geek but through my years of experience/haha

i found that if i had a slow connection and couldn't watch youtubes or use certain websites that required speed then Linux was a great OS

other than that if i used windows i would find a fast browser.

the experts would know if i am right or wrong.

I still have a old laptop that i put Puppy linux on because it didn't have the memory/ram to take any windows above 98 and that is obsolete now.My Puppy is fast :)

Just what they call their fastest speed. If I switched to TWC I could get a much faster speed. But, Earthlink is a bit cheaper for this speed. Not much. But, enough.

TWC can be pushy on the phone. I've had horrible experiences with them. Horrible. So bad that when I signed up for earthlink and a TWC installer came I told him to leave. LOL.

I let them come back later. But, it was just funny at the time. I didn't know that earthlink bought space on TWC's lines.
