Same with me...
Cable doesn't reach the street I live on... and yes it is in a rural area...
The phone lines are extremely old and can only support 28 kb/sec (sometimes if I'm lucky I go upt to 31 kb/sec)...
There is absolutely no way to get a better connection other than satellite, and I can't afford it and it's not even better than dial-up for gaming....
Ouch! I know my mom is still using dial up as well course she is just too cheap to get broadband lol but she still get around 40-50kb/s. I have heard that in some countries you could actually ask the government to help you get better phone lines so you would be able to have access to faster internet connection but I guess Canada is just too big and it would probably be waaaaaay expensive for them to upgrade the system. So how do you like playing D2 with dial up connection? I bet you've never played HC xD jk

I had a tethering plan on my phone so I was getting about 300kbs download and it only cost about $15 a month, but the connection would constantly drop and I would have to reconnect it every 10 or 15 minutes.
awww I feel sorry for you

Again the internet connection with cellphone work best in the cities lol
