Re: [PLUG] DSL speed and [NT] DCA.net and FIOS

["Eric Hidle" <junkmail@ie-ap.org>]

I got cable as an addition because DSL is very very unreliable where I am,
and I am probably going to have to have it disconnected. I am too far to get
any more than 1.5/384, and I have had severe connection intermittency. DCA
has been great about helping me try to get it resolved, but it looks like it
won't work out... that's why I am hoping for FIOS so much because I would
really like to have the netblock on a reliable connection at a decent
price...
