Wow... that is worse than the starving kids in Africa Only 1.2Mbit? What is this, the 90's? Maybe I am just lucky.... I got 20Mbit, and pretty cheap too ($50/month)

I don't really consider 1Mbit slow. Theres still a lot of people on 56k and ADSL at 256 or 368k.

Lol, you don't need a 20Mbit line to browse Newegg. If there was a Newegg retail store, I'd buy a place next door

While I don't think1Mbit is necessarily slow that doesn't mean I wouldn't rather have a line 10-50x the speed. Once I get my own place, I'll look into faster internet. I don't download games, music or movies so It's fine for me at the moment. Updating Steam games takes forever though, which sucks.

And I should note that my dorm connection is extremely low latency. It's just capped, which is fine for gaming.

Well, I suppose that some parts of the country are without a choice... in Russia, most citizens have 30Mbit... I want their internet

I need my bandwith... I have a total of 10 - 13 devices, including a wifi picture frame, two printers, and my PS3, online at any given time.... several of which do nothing but folding
