Re: [PLUG] $15 DSL

["Tim W." <timuel@voicenet.com>]

VZ can offer DSL service on a "Dry Line". Regardless of what they tell you. 
No dialtone, no telco bill.

On occasion, this can be done through a "partner" when a customer has no VZ 
land based line whatsoever installed at the location so YMMV when going 
through VZ as the ISP as opposed to a partner ordering service through the 
ILEC.

Also, VZ as well as any other alternative telecom carrier (cell service 
included) recommends that people still have dialtone in their home from a 
land based line, mainly due to reliability and liability issues with regards 
to "lifeline" services.
