As suggested below, have you talked to dca.net? They have access to verizon
facilities but act as your isp. Although I have never used them personally
I know people who do and are happy with them. Because of their semi-unique
arrangment they are able to provide DSl service when no else but Verizon can.
I have been told that if verizon offers DSL service there is a good chance
they can also. Again I have never used them myself but IMO it is worth calling
them if you really want an ISP other than Verizon.
