Dial-Up

Isabella · 08-23-2007, 09:40 PM

Dial-up is awful! My modem no longer works. I ordered another one, but it is not compatible with my router. I had to buy a computer with more USB ports and and an ethernet connection to work with new router/modem. Waiting for everything to come in. My equipment was 5 years old. including computer, so I figured time to upgrade. Apparently not compatiable with AT&T. I miss BellSouth! I guess I could have connected everything to my computer that is only 2 years old, but too lazy. LOL. It is in a cabinet and hard to get to things. Dell should love me. This is about the 7th Dell I have bought. I love the tech support. The last computer I bought I paid for 4 years support, but have not called them one time.

You could have bought a USB hub instead.

LOL, don't listen to Joe. You NEEDED a new computer!

This is true, but not for the reason of too few USB ports.

I'd rather not have Internet at all then go back to dial-up now.

I've been on dial-up since Sunday when my cable went out. I'm this close to climbing a clock tower with a rifle.
