What did they actually quote you for their service? |

| I would suggest checking with your neighbors to see if they have the service, how reliable it is, and how fast of a connection they are getting.
Edit: Doing a Google search on them I see a lot of dissatisfied customers.

| yeah, it isn't too encouraging. I wish windstream offered service in Atlanta. 12mbps without a phone line for $44.95 with unlimited newsgroup access. I download all my TV shows and put them on the HTPC, one of the biggest reasons I have no desire for TV service.
Interesting; I typed in "ATT dsl without phone service" in to google and was greeted with this result: »www.att.com/gen/general?pid=11523
It shows several options for DSL without voice from 768 to 6mbps.
If I go through att.com and click on the "Internet & DSL" tab it kicks me to a bellsouth page where the only voiceless option is 1.5mbps. Odd, I have the same address in both sites. Then I stumbled on this link; »www.bellsouth.com/consumer/inets···pop.html This popup shows several choices for a couple bucks more than my googled link.
I guess I'll have to call around Monday and talk to an actual person to see what my options are. Leaning towards comcast limited basic with the $20 6-month promotion and going from there, i.e. jump ship after 6-months and sign up with ATT. |
