ADSL
Ok folks, this is official. This post is being written from my home, sitting on my coach, with no cables lying around me (well except the mouse), and me keeping 1 eye on the television…. ADSL at home rocks! No, wait. ADSL with a wireless router at home, rocks!
After ordering my telephone line around 5 weeks ago, and then my conversion to ADSL, around 3 weeks ago, I finally have a always-on internet connection at home. I bought a Netgear wireless ADSL router from Digital Planet (which is 10 times better than the wireless router that Telkom offers), which connects me to “broadband” internet. It also makes my entire home wireless, so I can connect to the internet, or my home network from anywhere in my house.
Our ISP is Web Africa, and I say “our” because I’m sharing the connection with my office. Web Africa give you 4 concurrent connections, so that you can connect from work and from home, without having to pay extra ISP costs. That truly rocks!
So goodbye dial-up, hello broadband!

I also went “permanently” online about 2 months ago, so I know the feeling of being able to go on the net when you want and to do it fast after struggeling with a modem most of my life. I chose to go the iBurst route instead of Telkom’s ADSL and I have to say I have not regretted it one day. Hope this means we will be seeing more posts regularly ;-)

Hell yeah.
So Jean, now that I hear you also connected, when’s that blog of yours gona start?
Hey, what about we start an ex-Dakota blog, where we can find all the ex-dakota’ers and find out where they are! I work with a girl that did the exact same course we did 2 years before us, and I also met another oke that studied Delphi there. ;) (Ok, the blog thing is a joke, but just imagine….) So far, you the only oke that is actually earning money from exactly what you studied….
