Install was very quick and painless and I was able to get the DSL connection up and running a day before the installation date.

I've had the DSL w/ Verizon for over 2 months and haven't run into any huges problems. The only complaint is the their DNSs seems to resolve a little bit, which might not be problem on there end. Quick and simple fix was to use a local ISP DNS.

I ordered 384K/384K DSL from ISWest for $154.00 per month for my home business. The order went perfect and I was very happy. My installation required static IP addresses. The over all expeirence with ISWest was fantastic.

** Update. I have now had my DSL with ISWest for over 2 years and the service is the best I have ever had. You need to have this company as your ISP. Very fast and stable service.

Pacbell promised DSL in my area for 2 years same with the cable company I could not wait any longer. Called ISWest they said they could get me a DSL line, It was a little more money but boy is it worth it. Install was fast. I am loving it.

1536/384K GTE land DSL with ISWEST as ISP. Install went great and I was up and running from day one. I have 16 static IPs with a cabletron router. Tech support is very helpful and always available. I have experienced NO speed problems at all. I consistently get 1300 downloads and 370K uploads per dslreports speed tests.

24 tech support? no way

What are you talking about?
When I've called ISWest not during their business hours I just get something to put a quick message and phone # on. Gimme that number you got! Hahah.

Re: 24 tech support? no way

The number I have is an after hours support number for DSL, Frame, and Server CO-LO customers. When I have had occasion to call it - someone returns my call within 20 minutes.

When I ordered my DSL with ISWest, they impressed me from the start. They walked me through the entire process and then called me to let me know that the installation was done BEFORE the due date. They took care of coordinating the line with Verizon and made it easy for me.

Their techs walked me thru installing my modem, explained to me what a static IP address was and told me how to set my it in my machine, and even gave me tips for setting up and securing a network in my house.

They've been helpful, the connection has been consistently fast when I test it, and I haven't been down for any length of time. I ordered a 768/128 line, and I'm consistently pretty close to that. I'd definitely order with ISWest again.

If you are looking for a quality ISP, then consider ISWest. They have a great sales staff and installed my DSL faster than they told me it would be installed.

There were a few problems getting my DSL installed and ISWest kept me completely informed.
None yet.
Tried with a few other ISP's with no luck. ISWest delivered. Thanks for the great service.

I had tried to get DSL from a few other providers in the area with no luck and quite a bit of run around. I found ISWest and they took the time to explain to me what DSL is all about and explained exactly what I could expect from them and DSL. They did not just sugar coat it to get my sale. I respected that. The price seems to be a little higher them some of the other places I called but the service and the fact that the did get me up and running is well worth it. I love my DSL and the service that ISWest has provided me. I run a small business from home and the got me all the equipment (router, hub, etc) that I needed and followed that up with other useful services for my company. I have 8 static IP addresses and the speed is great. Thanks again.
