Dialup vs. Broadband
Dialup vs. Broadband
04/09/2004 03:54 PMDouglas 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.
Dialup WiFi?
Dialup WiFi?
08/27/2004 03:36 PMJust 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.
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?

Is It Misleading To Call A Dialup
Accelerator Broadband?
Is It Misleading To Call A Dialup
Accelerator Broadband?
04/14/2004 03:58 PMThese 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.
