Thread: Verizon DSL - $14.99 + FREE speed upgrade

Just open one side of Dell PC Plug in two sticks of RAM Close PC and start PC I have done it dozen times!! It is so easy but you have more excuses for not doing such an EASY task!! Installing RAM is EASIER tha writing an email!! If you can use email, you can install RAM!! JUST DO IT and stop talking about it!! You could have been finished by the time your wrote your email stating why you cannot!!

Quoting some of those URLs: Before You Begin: [one of the tools recommended]: Flash BIOS update program floppy disk or CD Quote: Lay the computer on its side so that the system board is on the bottom of the inside of the computer. This scares me, because it's very heavy, and I'm weak, so I'm not sure I can move it in a stable way. Then there's the matter of "removing AGP card first". That looks complicated. This...

I'm guessing that you have two - 125MB sticks already in your Dimension for a total of 256MB. If you press F2 at startup, you can enter the BIOS and it will tell you exactly the amount of installed memory, computer memory speed, amount of video memory, size of the display cache, and channel mode (dual or single).

After giving it some serious thought, I split the posts about Upgrading RAM to a separate thread, as they aren't materially about Verizon DSL. The new thread address is:   http://www.freedomlist.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=33714    And, as is usually mentioned, remember that Verizon DSL service isn't available in all areas. Thank you.

I just recently renewed at $14.99 also. This is the third time that I have done so. As said, just be polite but be persistent. Prior to renewing this time I was able to get the speed upgrade just for the asking. I called and inquired about the speed increase that new subscribers were getting and asked if it was available to me for the remainder of my contract and they said fine. By the next day I had the 1/386 increase.
