We were right at the edge where all of the fastest Internet ended. We used a DSL system that was not the best. When the local ATT Internet service became available, I had it installed right away. I remember putting in my email address to be notified when it would be available in our area. I was looking forward to not having to manage Internet usage to keep the arguments from occurring with the kids. They used to really dislike it when I had to do some work for my boss in the evenings at home. I could not have anyone else watching videos or browsing while I was working due to the slowdowns.<!--more--> Now we all can do what we want.<\/p>\n<p>The kids are either watching videos or streaming movies or TV. The oldest one is usually playing video games live on the Internet against other players. My wife watches old TV shows while she rides her exercise bike. I work editing photos and video. None of us have to manage our time online now. We can just do what we want without any worries about lagging, buffering or slowdowns that get everything slowing to a crawl.

It was just way too slow.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t see how a modern family can get by without fast broadband Internet now. There are just too many things that rely on a high speed Internet connection nowadays. Everything from TV to plain old Internet browsing needs a high speed connection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I remember having to put up with lousy Internet service at our rural home.
