Social \ Which Dial-Up To Go With??
Kudos: 666

Possibly the wrong forum so Admin can move it if need be...
I have an issue at the moment with our newly built house in a new estate being too far from the phone exchange to access and type of ADSL or cable connection. Our options are Telstra Wireless which costs way too much to fathom or Dodo who i have only ever heard ordinary things about or Satellite which doesnt seem all that inviting although the government will subsidise the dish and installation 
So my question is and although its not gonna get my PS3 online...which is the best Dial-Up provider to go with and do the Web-Accelerators work that some providers have??
Any info would be handy

A lot of servers wont even let you log in with 56k. lol it would take a month to download the latest update. Your better off with sattelite if the gov's gunna pay for it to be installed.

try 3 wireless, it less than half the price for double the amount of downloads than telstra

And is it my fault ISP's cannot provide our house ADSL ya twats?? Read the post and than if you still have nothing informative to post, go spin your BS elsewhere.
Thanks again to the others

Dialup is dialup really mate. For the most part, I wouldn't worry too much about the accelerator stuff, it's too inconsistent. I'd just look at a cheap (dodo, for eg) dialup plan, cos it's really not gonna be too much different from anywhere else. You could try and aggregate two dialup lines like back in the old days, if you're really keen

Cheers guys...i will certainly look into 3 wireless!! I am keen on Dodo's wireless plan and the price but i have just read so much negative feedback about them but i guess that happens with alot of ISP's...im sure there are people who are happy with them also!

Depending on where you live, bc.whirlpool.net.au/ might be a good place to start. Most people just look at the big providers out there, but if you fill this in properly, you might find something worth looking at.
