20 June 2008: Well - I bit the bullet when I found out that DSL Extreme 6.0 was now available in our area. I've adjusted the price to $43/month, which I don't find out of line when compared to our local cable company rates & those of HughesNet. So now I'm on the 6 MEG plan and yet to see less than 5.9 download speeds even during peak usage times. Sorry - I tried to get the speed tests I've done as I've gone through the upgrades in sequential order by date, but couldn't.
4 April 2008: Another month has come and gone, can't say anything but good for AT&T's DSL service. The 3 MEG service is great, no latency, speeds as advertised - always. There has to be something bad, doesn't there?
7 March 2008: It's been a month since I signed on with Bellsouth, no dropouts, no latency problems. Sure am happy that HughesNet performed so bad that I swapped over. Bellsouth has now made DSL Extreme service available in our area -so I upgraded last night. Couldn't believe how fast Bellsouth implemented 3 MEG service is - already up and running. Can you say "Happy Camper"?
After dropping Hughes service a week ago, DSL service sure is a welcome relief.
I signed up for the Fast Access Ultra Service (1.5/256), the fastest service we have available in our area. So far speeds I'm getting are close to what was advertised with minimal latency. Haven't noticed drops in speeds during peak hours.
Too bad DSL wasn't available in my area sooner. Cable broadband also became available at the same time as DSL but after reading the reviews here on Charter (50-50 split) between the happy's and not so happy's compared with the 75-25 split on DSL, I jumped on board.
I probably would have rated AT&T/Bellsouth better but after experiencing so many Hughes problems, I'm running on the conservative side until I've had DSL for a few months.
