I switched from AT&T/Yahoo to DSLExtreme about 1 month ago. My contract with AT&T expired and that left me free to finally explore other options. I had read good things about DSLExtreme and decided to give them a try.
So far there have been no major problems. My line was switched over on the day is was supposed to be and I only saw about 2 hours of downtime. Speed tests all show that I am getting the speed that I am paying for which is good.
I also like the fact that I now have a full range of newsgroups to browse as well. A while back AT&T decided to prune some of the more "questionable" groups from their servers and that kind of irritated me. So now I have access to all of those groups and more now.
I have not had to deal with tech support so I can't speak as to how they deal with customers. But I have used the dedicated forum here at DSLr to ask questions of the staff and have gotten answers to all of them that way.
