| It just amazes me... ...that RBOC's are even able to deploy DSL what with the screwey distance records, questionable copper infrastructure and hokey rules regarding who can provide your dialtone in order to get service. I started with DSL in 2000 and had about 85% uptime but also had an issue with being a "mobile home" with changing distance records. The final straw was the lightning bolt that took out the line and not having my service provider willing to service it (it was a dedicated line from the pre-linesharing days). I reluctantly switched to cable and never looked back. Total down time in 3+ years has been approximately 9 hours not including the blackout of 2003.
