Well then you should have used a different computer.

I should be able to get online at PC when ever I am away from home. I can access internet on my laptop or Dad's or mom's laptop from my cell phone almost anywhere, on the road or at my grandma's. Only problem is... 1.) I need to get Windows XP on my laptop, or I just need to buy a new laptop.

How fast is it?

[Reese Riverson]

230 or 260KBPS from what Windows says. Better then dial-up. The phone calls out and then connects like dial-up, but still is better.

How long does it take to display a topic page at PC?

[neo]

Almost a minute for me. Or not... I am not so sure.

[Xenon]

That's way too long. Do you use Firefox?

[Hunchman801]

That wouldn't even have taken that long with my old dialup connection...

[Reese Riverson]

Pages on PC show up in a couple of seconds for me.

[Hunchman801]

I wonder if it is possible to access the internet so quickly from a cellphone in France

[Reese Riverson]

Why, do you want internet access where ever you are at?

[Hunchman801]

That would be nice, but I wonder if it's possible.

[Reese Riverson]

It is here. So, it could be there also.

[Hunchman801]

I'll try to find out and tell you about it

[neo]

Well, I just counted, and for me, it was like 5 seconds. ^^

[Suad_199512]

For me is a minute (having internet problems).

Your internet connection isn't 512bytes a second, or 1KBPS is it? o_o

[Beebop]

My connection is too fast.

[neo]

Oh well, haha! I have fast internet now. I won't have to worry about that stinky dial-up.

[Suad_199512]

No I have a router that doesn't work good.

[Beebop]

I have a wireless router that doesn't work unless I shake it every 5 minutes.
