Well I have had DSL with Ameritech/SBC since January 2002  I had about a 17 day delay at initial install because someone configured my Static IP incorrectly. between then and the latest upgrade, May 16 to a Dynamic IP same 1.5/256 speed. Speed here has always been good, ever since I did my self install. With SBC you run DSL on PPPOE and have had no probs using Win XP client or my router. I have had a few outages, all on the static, but those were cleared up quickly, and you also have a free dial-up account. This can be used nationwide I usually get about 1.2/235 for speeds and am very happy with it. The customer support here at BBR is outstanding, everyone from SBC, on and off the clock, deserves a months paid vacation!! Extremely happy overall with the service. And this being so I upgraded the Tech support rating for this reason...and only this reason.. the phone tech support is still playing russian roulette!!
**UPDATE** 3-14-04 Things are still going great, the even bumped up the service to 1.5/384, actual speed is Download = 1.269 Mbps, Upload = 318.42 kbps . I once again upgraded the tech support, as I've had better luck on phone support when the need arises, or I just have questions.
***UPDATE*** 2-17-08 have been on the Elite package, 6/768 for a few months now and love it. easy upgrade happened quickly and without issue. pings are good as well thanks ATT
***UPDATE*** 7-16_09 have moved to a different city, but am able to get the Pro package. speeds are always consistent. been using it for about 2 months now with no problems, not even an outage
