Pros: Reliable service Cons: Drops online gamers
I have used Mindspring in both California and Cincinnati and it is a solid ISP but it has some real problems. One the positive side, I almost always get in when I try and I connect at 28.8 or better every time. My usual connection is 44.0. Tech...

O.K., your thinking either A.) I'm getting on line for the first time, or B.) Man, I'm really sick of my current ISP ( Internet Service Provider for you folks who are new to the computer world )and want to find something better. Relax, you've come to the...

Pros: fast connections, no disconnects, economical Cons: will it change now that it's part of a bigger ISP?
I was on AOL for a few months just to learn the internet. I tried a few ISP's before getting Netcom (which is now part of Mindspring). I've been on Netcom for about 3 years, and have had very few problems. I get on every time with no problem, and...

Pros: well, it's all over the place....best that can be said for them Cons: Pretty much everything
Nothing is more pitiful than a "once great" who doesn't seem to know when his time is past. As hard as it is to watch them try....deep inside you always want them to hit that one last homerun or score that one last touchdown....but you always...

Pros: Reliable; excellent support; many local servers Cons: ?
I am a traveling man. I live in hotels at least two weeks of every month, and depend on internet access for communications and other business.
I signed up with Mindspring a little over two years ago, and have been completely pleased with...

Pros: freedom to choose internet software, up to 6 e-mailboxes available Cons: this ISP has a bad case of Merger Mania
Spring Fever: The uncontrollable urge to find and mate with nearly anything that looks even remotely like your species... to the detriment of all else in your life.

Pros: Service, Service, Service Cons: Not yet available internationally
I've been an internet user for over a decade and have tried most of the major companies like AOL, CompuServe and others. I've also tried local ISPs and some of the "freebies" out there. None can compare with the service and ease of use of...

Pros: quick connection, web sites load quickly, don't get bumped, very good tech support Cons: none as of yet
Over the years we have had several ISPs. We have tried AOL, Compact, Netzero, Bellsouth, Prodigy and now are with Mindspring. AOL was the least favorable of all we tried. Although Netzero is free, we found that the continual rolling advertising was so...

Pros: outstanding technical support Cons: not available in all parts of the country
MindSpring is an example of what customer service can and should be. They have been my one and only Internet Service Provider (ISP) since I got a computer about 2-1/2 years ago. There are many things about MindSpring which I like, including the...

Pros: multiple email addresses same cost Cons: don't know any
We were original Sprynet customers, and the transition to Mindspring was very smooth. My husband and I each have our own computer at home, and with the 3 email accounts, we are able to share one account and have our own private email addresses and one...

Pros: good color schemes Cons: everything else
When I started my internet experience a few years ago, I went with Mindspring because it was a home town company. Just as I've left Atlanta, I've left Mindspring. Out of the many internet providers I have used since, Mindspring had the worst access,...

Pros: Reliable fast connections, seamless service Cons: low on content but I prefer the web anyway
To me an ISP should be transparent other than you having to dial up. Mindspring meets this expectation wholeheartedly by providing top-notch connections.
I have tried AOsmell (when I was a newbie), as well as MSN and Juno and Mspring is by far...

Pros: reliable, easy to use, inexpensive Cons: haven't found any cons
I have been using Mindspring for some time, now. I am very satisfied with the service. I rarely have trouble getting on-line, in fact I haven't had any problem getting on-line for a long time. When talking with others, I fund I don't have or rarely...

Pros: Quick Reliable Connections Cons: To long on the phone with tech support
Overall an excellent ISP. The wait time to talk to a member of tech support however is unreasonably long (I waited 20 minutes at 2:00 in the morning). I have never got a busy signal when I attempt to dial in. There are several options as far as...

Pros: connection, tech support, service Cons: none
Before becoming a MindSpring customer, I started (like most people) on AOL, back when their rate was $3.50 per hour. Sure it was fun, entertaining, easy to use, and expensive too. I had to find a cheaper alternative, and it came in a floppy from...
