Hi, I'm Jason, Mac genius, and today we're going to talk about Internet Service Providers, or ISP's. These are basically people that will provide you with an Internet connection. A lot of cable companies; Comcast, Quest, a lot of those guys will provide your DSL connections which are good. DSL is always on, and DSL is nice to have. You just jump on your computer, you click on your browser, and you're good to go. Dial-up; don't use dial-up. Dial-up's wrong and evil, and it's a thing of the past. So that said, there is a good side and a down side to satellite services. The good side is they have usually fast connections. The down side is cost, and also, usually they have kind of an allowance per month so you have so much bandwidth that you use per month, and when you use that bandwidth then you're done. So, we don't want to you know; Wild Blue does that, Hughes does that, and those, that's not a good deal, so you guys need to get a good deal, so... Usually, your phone companies will provide also like; cause' DSL's connected through a phone service, so you're going to get your Internet connection, your phone line, and your cable usually will come packaged at a discount price usually, and I know that some services will offer; I think Quest has a kind of a lifetime, they lock in a price for a lifetime with you. If you want to sign your blood away and and do a contract with Quest that's your business, but otherwise, you can pretty much do, choose whoever you want. Check around your area and you'll have local packages to choose from, or national packages to choose from. Also, it's a good idea to talk to friends and people who you service and do they get good customer support? Do they get quick service? If something breaks down do they get answers quick? Is there twenty-four hour service? These are things that you're going to want to ask yourself and before you decide. So, that's choosing an Internet Service Provider, some things to keep in mind. Thanks for watching. I'm Jason, Mac genius. Talk to you later.
