I had 6 meg cable broadband that cost me $45/month and never used the bandwidth!
I ordered AT&T's 768 "DSL Lite w/ term agreement" the day it became available. (term agreement is 12 months, with a $50 early termination fee)
The $75 DSL modem/router & install kit came 3 days later.
I used the DSL splitter in the self-install kit to separate voice and DSL lines outside at the customer interface, so I don't need to use DSL filters on the phones inside.
I get about 650 down and 100 up.
I plan on keeping this as long as it remains $10/month, which is at least through 12/31/2009.

| My new cheap Bell South/At&T DSL service. Count me as a total fan also. I found the concealed AT&T promotional rate for its DSL Lite Service, at only $10.00 per month. I think I get it for 2.5 years. It is great - faster than my broadband with one of the two local cable companies - Charter Communications. Service and technical support are wonderful. The reps prefer to talk to you, not fumble around with e-mails. Even before I got the simple to install set up kit, I got a call from a rep asking if she could help me install. No one should need any help - it is all so easy. I counted 5 filters for the house phones and, yes, you actually only need one. There is a $75.00 rebate available after the first month that more than pays for the $60.00 modem. I could not immediately sign up on the net after 30 days so I just called and the rep said she would "push it thru" and the check was on its way. Of course there is remote access and a back up dial up connection provided. Read about it on the AT&T site or the Bell South site. | |

| 768kbps DSL I had dial-up and hated it. Along came the 768 offer for $10 per month. I jumped on it and have not regretted it. I was getting about 630 speed but after about 3 weeks my speed has increased to around 788/128. My downloads have also increased from around 79MB/s to close to 100MB/s. This is a really great deal for those who want the most bang for the buck. | |
