I remember when I first got the computer I was on Dial Up
Spent ages and ages wacking the button to try and make it go faster!!!
Thank god for BT Broadband!!
Is France still not on anything like that Gerri or is it because you are out in the sticks that you cant have it?

| I feel for you Gerri. After having dial up in France for so long it was such a relief to finally get broadband. Hang on in there girl! |

| the people in the village can get broadband but apparently we are too far out and some days it is soo slow and won't connect and drops you off line when you have typed loads and then you lose it all I not at all surprised I am going nuts |

can you not get access via a mobile phone provider? surely that would be better then dial up, think all you need is a dongle plugged into pc usb? Rui should bein the know?
I hated dialup only good thing was i had time to make a brew in between pages loading LOL |
