Hello,

Added the cable option to the poll.
Also added UMTS / GPRS / 3G as option.
I assume the others at the moment are cable.

Great idea for a thread Bertus!

I'm on Rogers Cable, it's 10/1 Mbps. Costs around $60/m.

edit: I should add, like most large telecom companies, they are an evil and heartless corporation that rarely gives me the download speeds I'm paying for :)

Hello,

At ADSL the speed is mainly dependent on the distance between your home and the access point.
I have the luck that I am only a few meters from that point.

In holland there are many broadband connections.
There are several providers, both cable and ADSL.

I am connected with Telfort (a daughter company of KPN the large telephone company in holland).
