*hugs cable modem*
I have InsightBB.. which is wonderful

, though I do know that the cable big is an arm and a leg around 45.00 a month and the modem was free which is a good thing.. but I also have the option to get Sat. Internet if I ever move back out to the boonies where their is no cable..
But to your problem, Cable is the fastst thing out their unless you have the money to pay for a T1 connection and not many have them that fast.. the fastst that you can download is about 500kb a second which is not bad, a 150MB file only takes about 5 minutes to work..
And another thing, don't do the wireless thing.. I live in a small town and our county court house has wireless internet which is on all the time, and all you need is a laptop and a network card and you can get into their system.. Which is not a good thing, but they are a bunch of country bumkins, they don't know. Even though we have told them over and over, all they did was call up the community School Admin guy to come out and fix it.. and he didn't.
So if you go wireless, please lock down your system... Its not that expensive, if you know where to look.. hell look towards Yahoo, or Earthlink.. You never know..
