If you're still loading up, get broadband.

Hehehe, nice joke on the title! Anyway, as I said what is your internet connection? Mine is a 4 MB connection. Brilliant connection I think. Don't get BT broadband, it's rubbish. Get telewest! If you have dial-up, get outta here. Wait, what if a Mod has a dial-up connection?

Would you have used the word 'Awesome'? I wouldn't have. I think this connection sucks, especially for the 60 USD or whatever it is that I pay for it. Eh, oh well.

2 Mb for me.

1.5mb-4mb ADSL

If you're wondring why you aren't getting 1.5 megabytes per second download, it's because your connection speed in measured in bits, while your download rate is in bytes, which are 8 times bigger. I'm not sure this is what you're asking, though.

Depends. Anywhere from 32 to 56 kbps.

Wait isn't it the other way around? My connection speed should 8 times bigger, and download speed be a lot slower. I think it's "storage speed"? Can someone correct me one this?

Your download speed is much slower than your connection speed. I'm not sure what you're saying, really.
