We've resized a couple of photos posted in various forums. Photos/attachments maybe posted in any of the forums, but out of consideration for those of you on dial-up, we need to limit the size of any photos/attachments posted outside of the "Photo Gallery."
Hmmm, just wondering....who are logged on with the most connections? Broadband, or Dial-up? It would seem to me that dial-up, in this day and age would be a lower number. Just my experience, however limited that may be.

Merhaba Vicki!!! You won't be doing that for long, we are working on Wireless on Powerlines now. This is something that hasn't come out just yet, but very soon. You will be able to get a highspeed wireless connection from your powerline! Pretty cool. They wanted to give people, just like you, some choices. Hope it comes to your area soon.

Now what will "they" think of next! A wireless connection would be great, as long as it truly is highspeed. But then I'm still in the dark ages as far as computers go. Only understand what I have to know to get a job done, but I'd still rather read a book...
This connection is very high speed. I don't fully understand your remark about being highspeed--"as long as it truly is highspeed." Some people get the low end of DSL/Cable/Wireless, the low end could be something on the range of 128 kps, that is considered "highspeed", but with downstream traffic you may wind up with dial-up speed. Downstream, meaning, you can't push harder than the traffic flow of the connection. Routers, border, Lan, and Wan are using something called OSPF, "Open Shortest Path First", this is helping with downstream traffic, and thus speeding up some connnections, but not all. People like yourself, being out in an area not very populated will really benefit from WPL, or Wireless Over Power Lines. This connection will depend on how far you are from the nearest pole. That's where the transceiver will be placed. Then the short distant to you house is covered and you get highspeed, that is the theory anyhoo.
