I have tried to get rid of my 56K modem for a long time, so I tried any DSL company that was available.
First RedConnect: I dont want to write all night long about how incompetent Red people are. I had to take 4 days off just to have either Red or BA to come to my house. They showed up only two out of 4 times. After painful 9am-5pm waiting periods, nothing would happen. I call up Red, and they dont know where their tech people are, or they just write a trouble ticket to the big brother(BA-Bell Atlantic). And lemme tell u what happens next: Nothing. Oooh and one little secret: when Bell Atlantic tech came to my house on the wrong day( he was supposed to come Tue but came on Wed), he left a message on my answering machine, saying that I cannot have DSL service on my line. When I told this to Red, they wanted me to record the voice msg and then email it to them-which I did. By the way, RedConnect do not offer voice over IP so i had to get another line in my house. (that is also why they charge so$$ooo much).
Then comes along AceCape. they promised to have everyting up and running in 10 days. They did. They didnt charge my CC after I had my DSL service. And when I call them up or email them, they solve problems. Once the DSL service went down, they took care of it within 2 hours. Whether they solved the problem or BA took care of it, I dont care. I know that if I have been with BA or Red, they would have found a way to screw things up. ( and i dont have to get a second line since the DSL service runs on the existing line.)
My only concern is that the modem I have purchased from AceCape is not a well known brand (Next Level Communications). (or at least I havent heard of it - the only other DSL modem I know is from 3Com). That is why I cannot really know if the modem is decent or not. Nevertheless, the manufacturer has a good web site and everytime I test the speed from web pages such as dslreports.com, I get close to 640K results.-which is my max speed)
I have no problems with the modem, and the DSL service is so great that I give them 5 stars... Thank you.
