I entered my new address on their online form and it came back with
$149/month. According to the results, for residential service:
"You are 4900 feet from your neighborhood CO, you are eligible for the
following Broadband services."
The only option listed is SDSL.
The default list ("Classic") of available pagkages go from 1.5 Mbps
up/down at $299/month to 384 Kbps up/down at $149/month. But if I click on
the "Sysadmin" or "Gamer" categories, I get a price at 384 Kbps up/down of
$119/month.
Why would ASDL not appear in my list of options? As far as I can tell, I'm
within ASDL distance.
