sounds like the dial up all right - been there - finally got DSL last year.

There might be a few tweaks in your player settings, vid card settings and general computer settings that might help a little bit.

I usually look thru those and see if there is a mention of speeding up or changes for performance etc.

Yup, AOL- tho, I use Firefox mostly, but AOL is the ISP- hate it! Thought it might be the dial-up, Dang!
Wife has to be convinced, tho. Almost had her convinced about 6 mos back. We were seriously getting $$ info on switching to broadband, still with phone lines, tho.
Prollem is- I dunno that much about all the options available
to us in this area, and the costs.
The cost is where the wife kinda stalls.
It kinda died an unnatural death (the idea of switching)
by attrition, and un/in-attention.

I got the verizon DSL when they had a 1 yr @ 14.95 a month {for a 1yr agreement}- now my yr is up so it will jump up to 19.95 {1 yr agreement} but that is still cheaper than most places that I've compared.

Here is a site for information about broadband in your area. http://www.dslreports.com/overview?v=r
I know, in my area, basic DSL is cheaper than AOL dialup. You can keep your AOL email address, when you go to broadband.
