Is there such a thing as as-needed DSL?

My sister visits my parents every couple months and wants Internet access at the house, but it has to be high-speed (at least basic DSL). Is there a really cheap decent quality DSL ISP, or an as-needed DSL-type account? (sort of like dial-up, so you get say twenty hours of DSL for ten bucks a month?) I thought NetZero had the answer with their 12.95/month 768k/DSL, but the price goes up to 22.95 after three months. Thanks

What is the cheapest option for monthly internet? Non dial up?

I need to get internet access from home, I have a wirless card on the computer. What are the typical price range and service options?

Thanks!

  • if i switch to hispd at home, can i still set up an internet connection elsewhere with only dial-up available?

    since i divide my time between my home, and another home wher i care for a disabled person, I like to have my service available from both locales. however, i would only have access via dial-up service at the second locale. i need to know if this is possible, or not, prior to switching.
    i would want this on the same account. Any problem?

    Is there a way to DOWNLOAD a flash game?

    Ok, I have this stupid internet access company (EXCEL NET), and they only have a 4GB download limit every month, we usually go through that in a matter of days, and are then reduced down to dial up speed again. Now I want to download the flash games off the internet (like from addictinggames.com) and save them on my computer. (I have 2 macs, 1 intel, and one PPC) Is there a way I can do this to save my bandwidth? And if I do download them, how do I play them on my computer?

    Thanks in advance!
