| Re: For the right price.. Well for the price of $28 for 384D/128U I'll stay with the feature provider at $50 and 1.5MbD/256KbU. Cut the cost by 40%, I would be paying 60% of what I now pay, and cut the speed by 77%D and 50%U and cut out all the other stuff offered. I don't think so. -- Are You Ready--Stand By BEEP ******** | |

| Re: For the right price.. dns dosen't really matter...what I would like is choice of backbone. Like maybe the standard package would be through uunet, but maybe for a little less $ another package could be routed through cogent. and definitely the ability to run servers, and unlimited usage. | |

| Who cares about ISP DNS? Give me a static IP address and permission to run a server and I'll run my own DNS server thank you. And it *will* have better uptime than anything an ISP might offer.
My personal ideal service - 2.0/384, static IP, delivered over bridged ATM PVC, $40/mo. I think that's completely reasonable. Sure, more bandwidth would be nice but having more bandwidth at home than at work gets old quick. Since it's hard to get more reliable than a traditional T1 in our area, we won't be getting multi-megabit connections in our office for a good while to come.
