Well, fast Internet access finally made it to our house. I tried the test on QWest's site, and it worked 4 times in a row. After my fiasco earlier this year, I was doubtful, but tried once again. I quickly installed the hardware, got the ISP information, and was soon cooking with gas (so to speak).

The difference is amazing. It's noticeably faster than work, which is over a partial T1 line (though shared by all employees). I've been watching streaming video with ease and web pages pop up extremely quickly.

I've still got to figure out what to do with this thing. I could host my own server, install a web cam, or do a number of other things I couldn't even consider in the past. We'll just see what diabolical things I come up with . . .
