I used a wireless broadband connection. It was good during fine weather, but in case of storms of rainy season the connection speed varies frequently.

I use wireless broadband access. It's quite simple and cheaper than cable. I only have one computer. But i have subscription with two ISPs. I use those access with my computer and my mobile phone. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

I have a wireless connection. It often goes off and goes low, but I still like it. The thing I like about this internet is it has no limitations. It is the only internet available in my mountainous home. It loads YouTube videos at an okay speed. I share the connection with three other people. Maybe that makes it slower but not much. Weekends is fine too.

I have cable at home and it's a 10 meg connection. I have two desktops connected to it, one running off windows XP and the other one using Linux and 2 other laptops are using the wireless router to connect wirelessly. So at any given time I don't notice any changed or dramatic drops in speeds unless there is an outage or they are working on it. During storms although it does seem to slow down just a bit but knock on wood I haven't had all that bad of a connection and have to say that I have been satisfied with the results.

We use a cable connection, and have two computers. My husband and I each have a computer. We only had one that we shared for a while, and then my husband got himself a new computer. it's great to be a two-computer household once again. Cable works quite well for speed, and we have just enough bandwidth for the two of us, and our vonage line...as long as we don't use the vonage line and both computers at the same time.

Well i'm using a DSL connection for my internet. There's only one computer here at home so there's really no need for routers. My speed is the slowest type of DSL i think, at 384kbps. Weather doesn't really affect much the speed i think because i still download with the same speed regardless of the weather. Maybe on WiFi, it will have a drastic effect.

For my country, there're only few ISP's, and yeah, i'm using Cable/ADSL, for my country, the speed is awfully slow but it's okay enough for normal browsing and searches, but so far, no problems with storms,heavy rains, etc. , but Satellite or Wireless ISP 100% will be affected by storms or heavy rains, because 1 of my friend used Wireless ISP and the speed is reduced to few kB's when it rained heavily, reason ? because it switched to GPRS i think.
