    01/09/2009 - FOLLOW-UP: It has been a few weeks now I just wanted to update that this new (ok old tech) PPPoE 7100/768 service has been ROCK SOLID. I am not sure why but my ping timings are extremely stable as well as my latency numbers. If you have DSLX and want more speed are on a dynamic IP this switch is a no brainer (for me it's CHEAPER than my 3000/768 static by around $8/mo) or even on a static IP...make the switch if it's offered in your service area. If you do have your own server and need a static IP you can always use something like DynDNS to work around that issue.

    One caveat is you might lost the ability to have port 25 unblocked and also lose the DSLX firewall service. I can live with those issues though the firewall would certainly be very nice to have back.

    See my Line Monitor here:
    »/testhistory?v···rt=z&p=7
    (the results are usually on pg. 7)

    ====================================================

    Just upgraded my service from 3000/768 to a new tier offered in my service area and am thrilled with the 7100/768 PPPoE. Decided to go ahead because it's about $8/mo cheaper and , well almost 3x faster downstream. The swap went super smoothly and was an easy switch with my router for PPPoE vs. a Static IP.

    Testing around 6400-6500/730bps so that is great as far as we are concerned out here where the sewer meets the sea...

    Also they maintain an ACTIVE presence on the DSLExtreme forum here on Broadband/DSL Reports. Even George the GM is there offering help along side DSLX_Zak and others...heck, they folks are so thoughtful they even announce when they are going to be away for a few days...

    I can only add that there have been a few issues that have arisen over the years and each time the tech support was beyond helpful. Always friendly and professional, but not overly officious (as in snotty like you might get with Earthlink/Verizon/Comcrap/etc...)

    I seriously have no reservations with recommending DSLExtreme to folks in SoCal or anywhere else.

    Thanks for the years of solid reliable service!!
