I called my provider and I was able to get a DSL and a few other phone features for about the same price as I was paying for dial up and and regular phone service. The phone company won't tell you about these deals unless you call them. Thanks for the great post and for "opening" my eyes. Randy Hi Rochelle,

Your comment about bundling your services and getting more for less is very interesting.

Thanks for the great post and for “opening” my eyes.

I have the basic roadrunner cable setup because I have the Time Warner cable for TVs. I just did the speed test to three different servers and came out at about 8,000 kb/s. The average for my state, Ohio, is about 6,500 kb/s. I have all my computers (5) connected through an ancient D-Link 615 wire and wireless router. One thing the cable guy did a few years back was to put a signal amplifier just before the cable split to go to my modem. Even at 8,000 kb/s I feel I have to wait too long. Now if I could double that to 16,000 kb/s I'd be in pig-heaven. Well, with all this speed at your disposal we'll be looking for twice the amount of good advise you provide to your readers.

Finally got around to calling the cable company and bundling my phone, cable, and internet. I found out that I could double my speed for less money than I had been paying. I also updated my FTP program, Filezilla to 3.0 and that made a world of difference in my transfer speeds. Fillezilla is free and is very easy to use. I recently did the same as you.
