Now using Verizon FiOS, big improvement over the old dial-up.

Cable at my apt, T1 at the hospital work, when I pick up ambulance shifts it's a Sprint aircard or finding some WiFi someplace

Could someone enlighten me as to what differentiates T1, cable, and DSL? I say FiOS, and really am just parroting, I have no idea what I'm talking about.

All I can say for sure is, when I got the upgrade to FiOS from Dialup, downloading most of the stuff linked here from YouTube went from minutes to seconds, and better quality.

PS: I am on a Dell PC.

DSL that's as slow or slower than dial-up used to be a decade ago, and I'd need a T1 now to do what I used to do on dial-up.

Sites like this are great but the internet gets worse and worse.
