625397 2007-12-29 08:45:00 So you have 200MB a month to use. But you say it only seems to last
for 10 days....Then logic tells me you need a bigger cap or if you don't want to spend anymore money an ISP that has a decent dial up speed.

So let's take Xnet for example (because I am with them)

256/128 with 1G of Data $27.95 or 600MB for $27.55

or

Xnet dial up for $ 9.95

So there you go.

625398 2007-12-29 13:58:00 nrrrta, I hate to break it to ya, but they're right...

Lets clear things up:
8 kilobytes = 64 kilobits per second (8 bits in a byte), so when you say that you're being slowed down to 8 and not 64... you're actually RIGHT ON what they advertised.

Now, I use Woosh a little bit when on the road. Yeah, the calling seems fine, no, YouTube on Woosh sucks majorly, and no, its never going to be the same sort of experience when using an ADSL connection due to the additional latency of being wireless etc.

So, you've used up 200MB in 10 days? Guess what? Without downloading Movies or OpenOffice, my family is easily able to go through 2-3GB some days (Most days we average between 150 -> 600MB though). You having 200MB last 10 days is pretty good IMO! Thats 20MB a day! Thats NOTHING mate, really...

So, Dial-Up, is the speed thing real or all in your head? Probably a combination of both... its not really as bad as you make it out to be in comparison to Dial-Up.
Do you need a bigger plan if you've gone over 200MB in just 10 days? YES! Absolutely! If you're on one of the "cheap" student plans that Woosh have, or the deals where you sign up during a certain date and get the whole thing for something like $34.95, then thats great.. but if you're not willing to pay the extra for more data, then you realistically have no right to complain coz you're getting exactly what you pay for.

Its like buying a cheap $10 pair of shoes from the Warehouse then complaining because they only last for 6 months compared with the $100 Nike's you used to buy which would last a whole year... You have no leg to stand on there...
