Hi.

When I first started using the Internet a little over 8 years ago, I only used it for "fun" things like chat, games, and e-mail. As time went on and I discovered that there were legitimate WAH opportunities (mainly writing for me), I began to use the dial up ISP more and more each day, which was a bit of a struggle since I am not the only one who lives in my house and at the time we had no back up cell phone to use when I tied up the phone line.

Now, this may not be news to experienced WAH workers, but nowadays it is crucial to have at least DSL service (cable is better, but it's pricier) as a way to connect to the net.

What is the predominant hi-speed connection among us? Cable or DSL? And how has getting a hi-speed provider helped forum members cope with the demands of a WAH job?
