Pac bell said i was in their area...... they come to install they say im out and call this number to confirm distence...... i call....... they say im avalible...... call later to make sure they say im not........ then after last time they say im avalible........ they come to my house....... then they say my lines are too old for dsl....... So i went to cable. what may have taken 2 months with Pac bell took about 1 week.

hey Cisco and Banzai....
i feel for ya. i was a lucky one. from first phone call to install was maybe a week, all worked like a charm. and i was out at the limit for distance !!
and it has run like a champ always. (well almost always. good enough for my liking)
my freinds all had problems of some sort even my neighbor ??? they kept telling him he couldn't get it, and i already had it up and running !! go figure.

Cable-Optimum Online
$29.99 a month if you have family cable which I do
That is accurate since it comes up pretty much the same in speed tests
