It s the speed that matters, I often visit the cyber cafe and do surfing over there but I find the speed too low as compared to my own compouter at 2mbps an electifying speed of the net, what do you do?

Nahhh... I don't go out to internet cafes ever since we got an internet connection at home. At 100.0 mbps, I prefer to surf the net at home rather than go to the cyber cafe and wait for soooo long just to surf the net...

Yes there isn't any need to go to internet cafes when we can surf at the comfort of our homes. BTW do you really have 100 MB per second internet connection. I think you're telling the LAN speed. You can check your internet speed at http://speedtest.net

of course the net at the cafe is slow and no facilities provided!

I feel much secured surfing from home as i can do all my internet transaction with out bothering much about security.

Thanks and take care.

home system is much better, as its easy and most faster than others at cafe!

well me a dash of both i go to cafes to play multiplayer games or for some emailing when my home network goes down , But for me i always prefer to stay at home and use my own desktop because you've got the saftey and securiy of your house and its way to comfortable and besides its your own computer your gonna use so ur very familiar with it .


myLot reputation of 80/100. dhawanbm (1886)   ranked 104 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

ofcourse saftey and security is of prime importance in net working, besides its comfortable

I would always surf the net in my home. Even if the net connections goes down, I would wait until its up rather than going to internet cafe. The reason being that, I can't do anything useful at the cyber cafes, as all my bookmarks are on my pc. And even if I knew the website names, I don't know many of the passwords for them, as I save the passwords in my browser.
So I would always prefer to surf the net in my home.


myLot reputation of 80/100. dhawanbm (1886)   ranked 104 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

at home you can book mark or make favourites what do you say?


Lenvor (45)  3 years ago

Yep, its not bookmarking alone, its also about being able to use them. Although I am slowly shifting to online bookmarking, its safe, can be easily exported.


myLot reputation of 80/100. dhawanbm (1886)   ranked 104 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

your own web at home is always prefered and surfing is at ease and delight in privacy and you are at perfect ease!

i prefer to do my surfing at home itself.there is lot more privacy in our home than cafes.and also if we have a 2 mbps connection then what's the need of a cafe.even if i am away from the home i don't go to cafe for surfing i have net on my mobile phone.if it is for taking for some printouts something like that i rely on cafes.


myLot reputation of 80/100. dhawanbm (1886)   ranked 104 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

of course there is lot of privacy in our own home comfort and this is the reason it is preffered over cybeercafe!

I prefer to use my own computer and mobile phone for surf the web. I have wireless broadband access so i can surfing anytime and anywhere. I don't think an internet cafe is worth now since i found that there's many virus and trojan in their computer. My reason is security purpose. I don't think that an internet cafe is a safe place to surf. Sometimes i found there's keylogger installed on their computer. Nowadays people concern with privacy. Using public computer has high of privacy stolen risk. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

I would still prefer to surf the net inside the comfort of my own home. No matter the speeds. If I have slow internet speeds at home and would be needing to upload or download huge files then I guess that's the only time that Im going to go to an internet cafe to finish my work. Still Id love for it if I could do it inside the house.

My internet connection right not might not be super fast but I can manage with it. I can download and upload things at a reasonable amount of time and best of all I can do my work here inside the house.^_^


myLot reputation of 80/100. dhawanbm (1886)   ranked 104 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

slow speeds mar the interes of a surfer what do you say?


myLot reputation of 97/100. bjcyrix (3663)   ranked 207 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

yep, it definitely does. One would just rather watch tv or dvd instead of patiently waiting for slow speeds.


myLot reputation of 80/100. dhawanbm (1886)   ranked 104 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

thats what i do when iam not able to access my net connecition at home and enjoy!


myLot reputation of 97/100. bjcyrix (3663)   ranked 207 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

oh, hehehe thats what I do too.^_^

I prefer to surf on my own PC. Aside from having quiet atmosphere, my files are all in it. I'm also a bit skeptical when other people use my things so, just the same, I find it hard to use the PC in cyber cafes - knowing that different people use it. Just like you, I also like the speed of my own PC. :D


myLot reputation of 80/100. dhawanbm (1886)   ranked 104 out of 2,474 in internet surfer  3 years ago

of course you have alot of your things on the computer which is your personal and as you may use it!
