I'm pretty much happy with anything faster than dialup honestly I was just pointing out the speed increase with verizon fios, if I had DSL I'd be happy with that too probably. Anyway,t his is getting off topic now so I'll drop it here. On a jaws related note, if anyone does get verizon fios, don't let them put their software on your computer, Their toolbar has a popup blocker and from what I can find, it will really play havoc with any other one you use at the same time and you can't seemingly to me, make any changes with jaws so I got rid of every last thing they installed. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Yardbird" <yardbird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi John, Well, my ISP is DSL extreme, and they offer a range of upload and download speeds. I'm doing fine with mine. I'm not racing the clock or beinginconvenienced in any meaningful way with the service I've got. So I'll staywith my provider, but thanks for the information.----- Original Message ----- From: "John Miller" <n1umj@xxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 6:13 PM Subject: Re: What is the fastest internet browser that works with Jaws? With verizon fios, you probably wouldn't notice any difference. I know I don't, it's so fast to begin with.----- Original Message ----- From: "Yardbird" <yardbird@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 6:19 PM Subject: Re: What is the fastest internet browser that works with Jaws?Chip, Thanks. I imagined it was something like that. I don't have any problem with this, myself. I use IE 7 and my DSL connection, although it's at the bottom end of their offerings in terms of download speed (and price), serves mequite well enough. But I am sure some computer users really need to get asclose to something like a T-1 connection speed as they can, for various practical reasons. I'm okay with my setup as is, though.----- Original Message ----- From: "Chip Orange" <Corange@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 2:51 PM Subject: RE: What is the fastest internet browser that works with Jaws? The difference can only be, at most, the time it takes for a web page to start loading for you. So, if a web page began loading within 5 seconds of your pressing the enter key, that's at most, how long the DNS server may have taken to respond to your web client with the IP address of the web server you were looking for. In practice, it's a small fraction of that time, and switching to a different DNS server is only going to save you a small fraction of that fraction. If however, you have an ISP with a DNS problem so that you have exceedingly long times before web pages begin to load, then you could look into an alternate DNS rather than switching ISPs. hth, Chip ------------------------------ Chip Orange Database Administrator Florida Public Service Commission Chip.Orange@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (850) 413-6314 (Any opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Florida Public Service Commission.)-----Original Message----- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Yardbird Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 5:36 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: What is the fastest internet browser that works with Jaws? Really? Is the difference significant? I mean, are we talking an extra minute to download a page from The New York times? Or a few seconds? Half a second? Just want to get some idea of what kind of speed difference we're talking about. thanks.----- Original Message ----- From: "Brandon B" <serrebi101@xxxxxxxxx>To: <jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 2:03 PM Subject: Re: What is the fastest internet browser that works with Jaws? Yes, if I'm not mistaken, firefox loads and renders pages faster then any other accessible browser on the windows side.
