I would like to share some of my experiences with today's generation of internet technology.
Not so bad is it? Well, it can always get worse. I'm using one of those 3G USB sticks as my primary source of internet connection. It is connected to a 3G enabled router so other devices are able to use it. At desperate times when there is absolutely no connection I'm forced to tether with my phone which has a limited download capacity of 1GB.
Unfortunately, I live in a town without DSL infrastructure, not even those crappy 128kbps DSL lines exist. The other towns in the vicinity (about 2-5km away) are covered with ADSL lines and some already have fiber optic. It gets really frustrating when you're paying €40 a month for such a terrible and useless connection. It's impossible to play games online, stream videos or do P2P.
Second test:
So yeah. This is what I have to deal with every day.
