Well, I've been trying to get broadband for a long time now but the only possible way to get it is by satellite which really isn't worth the money so for now I'm stuck with dial-up. However, I really want to try a different ISP so that I can get the most out of what I'm stuck with. Any recommendations? I currently have EarthLink and they've been a decent ISP so far, but like I said, I want to explore my options. |

Hm. I recommend going to ISP sites, then check if its available in your area.

Well I've been to every single broadband site I could think of and even some of the smaller ones that aren't known and nothing. As far as dial-up, I know that all the major ones have access numbers in my area because I live in a fairly populated county but I'm in an isolated portion of it so no luck. What I really want are just some recommendations of ISPs that people have liked. I've been looking into SBC Yahoo Dial but I can't find any review sites... |

I'm in Canada, and some popular/good ones that I'd recommend to someone are: Rogers Bell Sympatico |

Have you tried asking your neighbors what they're using, what they've used in the past, why they switched, etc? Might be a pain, but it might be a good way to get the info. :/ |

fused, if you have cable or satellite, try getting broadband for them, since it comes in on the same signal.... but you could always go for net zero or earthlink. |

Im ust not've been clear enough. Time Warner does run cable out here but the RoadRunner and EarthLink lines don't come out this far so I can't get cable. DSL is available through my phone company but I live more than 18000 ft. from my Central Office so I can't get DSL either. And I've tried NetZero before, complete crap. :X And I have EarthLink Dial now but I want to see some more ISPs that other people have liked. Hope that cleared up my first post.
