Re: Wilmington service provider


I will also vouch for FastNet.  I have had experience with them on the
commercial side, and know a few people who work in the NOC/ Carry 
beepers for them.  They're a first rate shop with very good connectivity.

As a sidebar, You should not concern yourself too much that your
ISP 'supports' linux.  What is important is that they embrace standard
technology (i.e. PPP) for dialup.  I'd ask if they have subscribers who 
use Linux (or other non MS os's) and be content with that.  I generally
hone in on frequency of busy signals, down time, speed, etc.

Lots of luck.

:"officially" support Linux, I was able to get someone (at 1:30AM, no less!)
