I have DCA wired by Verizon, and I have 640/90. Sure yours is 128? Or does
Verizon's upload line provisioning differ by area?
Maybe you can get the 1.5M ... if you pay Verizon's ... $79.95 ? ... per
month line charge for it. I pay $39.95 for my line; $10 more for DCA ISP
services, for the same total that you pay. I know that I could pay Verizon
more per month, and get higher bandwidth, with no extra charges from DCA. It
would be neat to have my own T1 equivalent (download speed) to my house, but
I'm not complaining too much.
