How much do you spend on the internet?

    I just realized that I'm an internet fanatic. I have got to have access. Over the weekend, the broadband company that I used had a "node" out. That node out was the one that I used. I began to have panic attacks and started feening! I quickly ran for the phone line. Once I hooked that up, I realized that it was really slow. So, feeling very put out, I went and ordered DSL. They just delivered the box of equipment today. Now, the node is working again. So here I sit, wondering if I should keep them both; so that I will have back-up if one or the other is not working. I figure I can put the DSL on my computer and leave the broadband on my daughter's computer. I have all of the wireless stuff for the broadband. I made sure that I got the wireless stuff with the DSL (mo' money). Got to stay connected!

    Does anyone else out there have more than two types of internet connections? And do you think that you're as bad off as I am?

    We spend too much time online, yet not enough. We only have one slow hook-up. But....when our computer died, I must admit, we rushed out and bought a new one. Couldn't stand the down time.

    I am constantly online...at work and at home. I have a broadband connection at home, and even have my phone service over the internet (VOIP). I log off here at work and boot up at home...we recently went through a phase without internet, and were running around crazy too.

    We have DSL which also has a dial-up with it, and we pay for a second dialup account. Eventually I may drop the second dialup, when I finally setup a wireless network. (read: buy some beers for the guy that will come over and set up my wireless network!)

    I and my whole family go crazy when the net is down for us. So I say use both.

    Our computer is always on, and seems like there is always someone in the family online! We have Road Runner through our cable company which we have had for years now, and like alot. We`d go crazy without access!
