Is there anyone here with some experience ? good or bad ?


Both...installation fine...first month great,ie. fast downloads, no degradation of speed due to congestion in your neighborhood. Horror story followed culminated by Bell Souths decision that I was too far from the hub and should not have been signed up in the first place. I now use cable connection and wish I could get dsl back. If you use the internet very often, you will never want to return to dialup speeds.

I have DSL through Flashcom and it is a pleasure. There has been only one problem that comes to mind. That is when one of their backbone providers (Exodus) was dropping packets in the northeast which caused a slow down in the system. That has since been corrected. Someone on this thread posted this link regarding the availability of DSL in a given area. You may find it of use. Good luck.
