I am one of those unlucky people who have a 56k modem, and can't get aything else. I live in the middle of nowhere. There is no cable or DSL available where I live and getting interenet ober satilite is very expensive. Is there any other way for me to get high speed interet, because 56k realy sucks.

Satellite internet.

It cost too much. Last time I checked, it is $700 hardware and instilation, and $60 a month. And it is not too fast.

Its pretty fast for the download.

Not worth it. Outages all the time, can't play multiplayer games, and the equipment breaks down all the time.
But, if you're more desperate than a constipated monkey, that's about your only option.

My friend has it an has only had one outage as far as I know. Also, not everyone uses the internet for online play.

I'm desperate, but I want something reliable, and faster. I wouldn't be able to be on this site if it wasn't for firefox. IE it took 60 secs to load each page.

I have fixed wireless, costs less then AOL with a seperate line did ... and other then the occasional fit of lag, works just as well as dsl and cable.
