:If you are going to switch from Cable to DSL don't switch to one of the ILEC based services. There you get oversubscribed services, uneducated support and moderate service at best. Spend some time reviewing some good ISP's (ISOMEDIA, Speakeasy, etc...) and do yourself justice and pay a little bit more for good services. The Cable providers (Adelphia, Comcast, Charter, Road Runner/Time Warner, etc...) and the ILEC's (SBC, Bell South, Verizon, Qwest, Centurytel, Frontier, etc...)
Narrow it down that much and there isn't much left. Unless of course you want to go with small ISP's that sell 256/256 for ungodly prices that buy their bandwdith from those ILEC companies in the first place.
