5 1/2 Year review
Seems like dsli is being blacklisted. Noone on bellsouth can recieve my emails now. Hope they get this fixed or I will have to change.
5 YEAR REVIEW (AT LEAST)
Wow I can't believe its been 5 years since I updated this. Whats even more incredible is how ugly this website still is.. oh well it works! lol Just like my DSLi... it works. So I don't have crazy fast download speeds but I'm stable and its been stable for 5 years. Service was great. I'm updating my review as I had them come out an install another PCDATA port in my garage as I have to move the office downstairs due to the baby fest in my life. All good. Quick install, good service, problem solved.
Anyways if your a regular user who wants regular reliability, no issues and a fast enough internet speed... this is your ISP. If your a mega geek and want to run some cool stuff at home for learning, XBOX Live, major games and so forth then you DEFINITELY need this ISP. If your from South Florida then you shouldnt even think about it and just call them right now and support a local business!

14 MONTH REVIEW
These guys are rock solid... and I am a whiner as well either looking for problems or most usually creating them.  They could have higher speeds and I am sure they will eventually get faster but the reliability for my needs has been incredible. Hats off guys...

8 MONTH REVIEW
Hi Folks,
Just another update on my service. I have been EXTREMELY pleased to say the least with DSLi. At first it took some time off and on to get things going but my service, knock on wood, has been INCREDIBLE and I just wanna update my review to reflect that. Since my last review I have added email and webservers and everything has been perfect. I honestly can't remember the last time I did not have service. DSLi is a great choice for Internet services in Miami. They allow you to pay online, have friendly support and more importantly a stable service. I am a happy camper when it comes to my ISP.

OLD REVIEW
After a move to a permanent residence I was looking for a static IP and a good company I could create a long term relationship with to meet all my ISP needs. After a fair amount of research I decided to part with Bellsouth and try DSLi. I had been a satisfied Bellsouth customer for 2 years but I was looking for a static IP and DSLi seemed like a good fit.
Sales went very smooth and within a week I had an appointment with a tech to set up my PCDATA connection(see below). Things got a bit hairy after that but I cannot place all the blame on DSLi. After about two weeks, multiple tech visits with Bellsouth and DSLi, some configuration problems and finally an inside wiring fix I had my connection working. This is in part due to a number of issues including a new neighborhood/house and the distinction between a PCDATA connection as compared to a regular ADSL connection. All technicality aside I figured almost as much. All in all almost 2 weeks more than anticipated.
I have been connected for about 2 months now and for the most part it has been stable except for a problem earlier this week that was resolved within a day. What I like most about DSLi is that now when I call I know that as soon as I say my name they pretty much know who I am and will provide me with excellent service which is what I am looking for in a long term ISP relationship. Being forwarded to some call center God knows well just isnt the same. And when a Systems/Network Engineer calls you at home 8:00 at night to work on your issue and leaves an email that feels good too.
All in all I am very satisfied with my service so far. A bit shaky at the start but I feel very confident with my service at present. The way I look at it is, that for the most part, in my area all ISP's are working on the same lines and when those lines are down your down no matter what ISP you have. So what I am looking for is great service and thats what I have been getting. Hopefully it will stay that way.
