ADSL

3.0 Mb down / 768k up. $99/mo. The dedicated loop service requires a
"professional" installation that costs $175 (I think)

I was having trouble with the bundled DSL dropping when my home POTS
line rang. SBC and Covad were hopeless at diagnosing this, and the
unbundled service was available so I simply switched. SBC droppped a
clean, new pair to the house. Covad's tech did his install in less than
10 minutes.

The also told me that I had to buy their DSL mode/wireless router
combo. I did, but the cost was rebated. Then I put my trusty Siemens
Speedstream/m0n0wall combination back in the line ;-)
