How old were you when your family got internet?

[Princess Niki]

Just curious about how old you were when the internet first entered your household.

I was 7 when we first subscribed to AOL and got my first email address, I can still remember the sound the dial up made. I was about 10 or 11 when we finally ditched that for MSN, and created my oldest email that still exists but I never use except to regain access to my current ones when they bork up.

Dunno I think like 8 or 9

 

[A Link In Time]

3, I think? Hard to remember for sure. 3 or 4. We got the AOL dial-up Internet to use on our family Windows 98 desktop.

 

[DeletedUser8]

I honestly can't remember. I think I was around 5 or 7, I think?

 

[Fraxinus]

Dunno. Young. 3 or 4 probably? Doesn't matter though because I wasn't allowed to play online anyway, and when we got a new family computer and my dad gave me the old one, he made sure I couldn't access the internet on it. Wasn't allowed to really use the internet until school started requiring it when I was like 10 or 11.

I think I was 11 or 12. Had AOL on standby haha and just started to play online when the PS2 came out.

I was been 10 when my family first got dial-up internet. Boy, did that ever change my life.

My family never got the net and I was in my mid 20s when i eventually got it myself

I would have been about 8 or 9 probably. I still remember getting online after school to play flash games online. I didn't end up getting a smartphone and really branching out online until I was about 15.

I was about 4 and my family had a Windows 98 desktop. I used to look up Zelda guides online to help with OOT.

 

[ThePoesareLoose]

I was Zero........ or maybe -3 lol
(I'm 17 now)

Oh I remember that distinctively. My family got internet way back in the Windows 95 days, back during the days of broadband. I remember being 4 or 5 years old using Netscape Navigator to surf this new-fangled thing called the internet.

I got internet pretty late. I wasn't interested but more and more options became available so at the age of 32 I got internet

 

[Pennycan1800]

I'd say probably 6 or 7.

no clue, b/c I remember my older brother having a computer during my kid years and I even played the Star Wars Battlefront games for PS2 online (first time I ever played any game online)
what I can say is I didn't start using the computer until I was like 9 or 10, and I would always just go on gamesradar.com
