For DSL? I've never had that kind of luck with SBC's (now AT&T) home
products, and I've been using their DSL since 2001. This is one instance
where paying the big bucks for at least a T1 can show some some return.
Even if it's "business DSL" it's still treated the same as "drooling
user DSL".
Purely my personal experience.
