RE: [PLUG] DSL w/o local phone


Ok from the mouth of a version Rep.: 
of course i have the answer duh!!!  You need to have Verizon as your local
dial tone provider in order to have dsl it works through your phone line
without interupting your phone service so you only need one line for voice
and internet.  I only know pricing for business but I think res has a
promotion going on the dsl right now.

Subject: [PLUG] DSL w/o local phone

hey all

I am moving to the Art Museum area from Chicago in a few weeks and am
investigating my internet options. It looks like verizon DSL (or a
company that uses verizon's lines) and comcast cable are the options.
any recommendations? dsl reports seems to rate them about equally.

my question is this....is it possible in philly to get DSL w/o local
phone. see

i know i have had friends here who have tried with ameritech and failed,
but i am hoping for better luck in philly.

thanks
russell
