Pros: accelerator - I think Cons: useless tech support, bad QC on install disks, the usual litany of sins
I've watched with interest the proliferation of internet "accelerators," those mysterious proprietary executables that claim to speed up your modem connection by a factor of five - EarthLink and the like. Since my soon-to-be ex-ISP Southwest Bell doesn't ...
Pros: free, connects a few times Cons: very difficult to connect, intrusive, ICQ-incompatible
In my continuing saga of finding a reliable, unintrusive and free ISP, I downloaded Netzero, Defenders of the Free World, about a week and a half ago. I’m ready to call quits on this relationship and dump it from my memory! I can assure you it is not a...
Pros: Free internet connection and free email account Cons: Can't really play online games without hacking the Zeroport
Benefits of Netzero
I have been using Netzero for about 13 months now and I have been completely satisfied with their service. After paying as much as $24.95 per month for other unlimited internet services, it's a relief to know you can...
Pros: Free for light users, cheap for "unrestricted" users, friendly tech support Cons: Ad bar for light users, (smaller) Ad bar for "unrestricted users
Absolutely! Who would have thought that a company that offered free internet access would STILL be operating? Or better yet: who would have thought they would became a real ISP?
Pros: Free (with ads), 9.95/mo (without), Many local dial-ups, relatively fast (for dial up) Cons: Not compatible with some online games, Netscape 6 or Quicken 2002
I am used to having full access to a T1 line (high speed internet access) and no need really for anything else. Well, that is work and having the need for some private access at home, I was looking around for a reasonable cheap provider. There was a time...
Pros: the free service is free, platinum is inexpensive, better than Juno, etc Cons: connect speeds using platinum vary from 28.8 to 46, frequent server errors, etc
A few months back, I wrote a review on Netzero internet service. Since writing that review, Netzero came out with their Platinum service- basically, their paid for internet service. They did this so that they can help fund their free service, and keep it...
Pros: Free! Cons: Ad Bar; Memory Hog; Slow Connection
01/30/06 Update - I have had Cable internet for a few years now - I would not go back to any dialup service in the WORLD! No matter how free it is! **Please see the bottom of this page for my updated comments about Netzero.** I have had Mindspring ...
Pros: Gives me more satisfaction than I ever got from AOL, Compuserve or People PC. A great deal at ten bucks. Great when you're stuck with the dreaded dial-up Cons: The log-on on box has a tendency to remain
on the screen after logging on. Slow speeds(5Kbs mostly). It leaves a permanent button on the taskbar while connected
*Clicking on review links will open them in a NEW window My Torturous Dial-Up:
Up
until November of 2003, I have been Internet-less. Yes, it was indeed a dreaded life without it. My only ...
Pros: Free Internet Access Cons: Threatening Messages
When I originally thought about writing an opinion for NetZero a few weeks ago my intentions were to highlight the service in a favorable way. Since then I have had a change of thought about this free ISP and have a bit of information that some of you...
Pros: decent internet service Cons: constant interruptions, software crashes
Anyone will admit the offer of free internet service is pretty tempting. In fact, I've been using various free ISP's for about a year and a half now. Of course, I've had to limit my number of choices in recent months because free ISP companies have...
Pros: It's Still Free! Cons: You Still Have To Deal With The AdBar!
On a recent trip to Vegas, I took my laptop with the intention of using my long distance pre-paid phone card to connect to my server back home. When I set the laptop up, I was looking at the Dial-Up Networking properties when I realized that I still had...
Pros: Faster speeds than typical dial-up. Low price. Cons: Install software doesn't like to go back. Easily disconnects you.
For the next few months I’m going to writing about my trials and tribulations on moving to the constant sunny and often times breezy city better known around the globe as Sin City aka Las Vegas, Nevada. Upon arriving here and unpacking my ...
Pros: It's free Cons: Unreliable, ad banner, connections slow
NetZero is one of the few free internet service providers that are out there that has not yet gone out of business or had major layoffs but I believe that this will occur rather shortly as this particular type of business venture is turning out to...
