Re: [PLUG] Re: Verizon DSL
|
I am curious why the verizon DSL users did not go to a third party
provider like Speakeasy? They have static IP and far superior service.
They are others that also provide much better service then Verizon. As you
might have read I am in a battle to get DSL with Verizon but I would never
use them as my ISP! Given the options, and if I had the choices, I would
never want comcast in my house! DirectTV and DSL would be my choice.
