Dialup vs. Broadband

Dialup vs. Broadband 04/09/2004 03:54 PM

Douglas Bowman's comparison of Dialup vs. Broadband is quite enlightening. It's been about 5 years since I went broadband, and I have to agree... without it the web sucks. I really just don't surf the net at all, if I'm forced to use dial-up... I find something else todo, which, makes Bush's Broadband by 2007 comments sound pretty neat, but also wasteful as a way to spend tax-dollars.

Broadband vs Dialup

Broadband vs Dialup 08/23/2004 08:45 AM
There are now more home internet users using broadband than dialup in the U.S. - Does this mean that web designers will continue down the same path as some programmers and create bloated code? Are the days of trying to be efficient and keeping pages less than 70k a thing of the past?

Dialup WiFi?

Dialup WiFi? 08/27/2004 03:36 PM
Just because you have a really slow, not always on, internet connection to the outside world, it doesn't mean you shouldn't be able to set up a home network or surf "wirelessly" on your laptop. Sensing the power of niche (and shrinking) markets, some company has apparently come up with a dialup WiFi hub. That's right, plug it in to a phone jack, have it handle the dialing, and surf away... at 56k, but without wires. Seems almost... pointless. Update: And, as has been made abundantly clear, there are plenty of products on the market that already do this, though, they most are also regular WiFi boxes as well. The point on this one seems to be that it's just dialup.

Is It Misleading To Call A Dialup
Accelerator Broadband? 04/14/2004 03:58 PM
These days many dialup providers have been offering "accelerators" for an additional fee (the technology is often provided by the company Propel, though there are a few others out there as well). These work by using caching and compression to make certain webpages appear faster - though, it doesn't actually speed up your connection at all. Now, popular cheap dialup up provider Joi Internet is being sued by BellSouth for false advertising, by claiming that their accelerated dialup is "DSL speed" and showing a commercial that implies it's even faster than BellSouth's DSL. Joi responds by making this into a David vs. Goliath style battle and claims that none of their customers have complained. Still, in this case, BellSouth has a point. The accelerated dialup is not DSL-speed at all, and implying that it is (or that it's faster than DSL) is clearly misleading.
