[Cialug] Fine Print - Broadband suggestions?

[Tim Wilson]

Me too.  I had Mediacom, and experienced long, frequent outages.  Haven't
had that problem with DSL.  Unless I'm doing long downloads, it seems my
1.5Mb DSL is at least as fast as the 3Mb I was getting through Mediacom.  My
line is through Qwest, but Internet Solver is my ISP.  The web mail isn't
the greatest (it's no GMail, but then again, what is?), but it suffices.
