I am a non-techie soccer Mom, who doesn't download music or play WoW. I tend to only surf and watch Netflix.
Before Earthlink, we had AT&T DSL. It was down a lot, so we switched to Earthlink when we moved. It does not seem to experience the outages that AT&T did.
But - argh - their customer service is horrible. They really should just fire everybody in India, knock $10 off the price and turn it into a DIY DSL service.
I finally got my problem fixed when I found a blog written by an executive. I posted a comment, and got a phone call the next day. Once I spoke to somebody with the intelligence to deviate from script, the problems were fixed, but nobody should have to work that hard to get a service issue resolved.
I use Gmail now, so when I have to leave earthlink my mail won't be disrupted.
