People pay for this???

by laryan , Aug 19 '00
Pros: Gives me an ISP that I can hate more than AOL. Let's me write a ranting/raving review.
Cons: The two pros listed are the only good thing I could think to say. Hard to describe without using profanity.
One year free Gateway.net access was supposed to be a selling point on my new computer. Actually, I looked at the hard drive storage (14 gigs compared to my previous 4 gigs) and how fast it was and could care less about Gateway.net. I told the salesman...

Pros: Fast connections, great customer service and tech support, good user to modem ratio
Cons: Service not available in all areas and paying annually to get the best price
Writing a review this favorable terrifies me! Broadcasting my positive experience of over two years of Internet Access Service provided by a responsible concern proves my insanity. During the first year of my subscription to CyberGate, I felt like a...

Does NOT live up to Gateway's reputation

by amylouky , May 15 '00
Pros: none
Cons: terrible service, frequent disconnections, limited usage
I signed up for gateway.net internet service, because I got a free year with the purchase of my computer. I figured it would be a good decision, because the company has a great reputation. While I have been very pleased with my PC purchase, I definitely...

Pros: fast, never busy, never been bumped
Cons: none to speak of yet

Gateway.net Gripes

by jenscookie , Feb 23 '00
Pros: Was once a good service
Cons: Terrible connectivity
When we bought our Gateway computer almost two years ago, we were offered the Gateway.net ISP at 14.95/month. At that time, the price seemed good for ISPs in our area. The only catch was a 6 month commitment.

At first, the service was great....

Will I ever connect?

by Luder2001 , Jan 28 '00
Pros: free year of service
Cons: can never connect
Gateway has to be one of the worst service providers in my area. They have two access numbers...both which are areas 50 miles away. The numbers are usually busy or have problems connecting. Some times it takes me 20 minutes to connect, only to get...

Gateway to Heaven or Hell?

by cadream2 , Jul 24 '00
Pros: Little down time, fast connections
Cons: It downloads into your computer so you can't pick up your emails from another computer
I totally agree with the woman who couldn't believe she was writing such positive things about a product. We too are using gateway for our internet provider because we got it free for a year for buying a gateway computer. We have been very pleased with...

Who would complain about free???

by faeriedragon , Dec 19 '99
Pros: have rarely gotten anything slower than 44 bps when logging on; one year fully free
Cons: limited service; once you go over the 150 hours in the month, you're charged per hour; no pop up windows telling me if their server is down or not able to connect
When I ordered my computer from Gateway back in July, I was told they offered one year free of 150 hours per month of internet access through Gateway.net. I thought "150 hours a month isn't much, but why complain if it's free?" So when my...

When I ordered my Gateway computer in September I was told that with this comes a FREE one year subscription to Gateway.Net. I said to myself what else could I ask for. So I subscribed to Gateway.Net for a year. With the years subscription I get 150...

Gateway.net NOT!

by marymargarete , Feb 18 '00
Pros: free , if you don't mind a take over
Cons: it takes over!
When I ordered my system over the phone, the salesperson told me that with my package came one year's free internet access with Gateway.net..It was one of the main selling points to me, thinking of the money I could save not using my current ISP.
