Pensacola, FL | Re: We'll see what happens when the promo prices expire DSLX - I'm surprized it works reading the reviews. Maybe the low price (crappy service) is why people b*tch about them constantly. Funny, until people gripe here about them, nothing gets fixed. | |

| Re: We'll see what happens when the promo prices expire The only issue that I've had with DSLX is SBC/at&t's lines...
since I'm at ~12k' I'm only rated for 3Mbps/512kbps. Since I use it for work (from home - VPN/X-11/Remote Desktop, etc), I need something _really_ stable. I had the service capped at 2498kbps/512kbps, as at&t's lines would cause resets during the day. Latency is low, and the service is stable, and the price is good (same as at&t's, but without PPPoE, and the typical outsourced support). I _really_ doubt that at&t would allow me to request speed caps on my line, and do it within 1 business day! DSLX's bad side was when they attempted to play Internic and hijack 404 with a namefinder service on DNS. I would have found another ISP if they didn't remove it. | |

| When my promo plans are up I call up and cancel. They lower them again for another six months. When six months comes up call and repeat. Works for me every time.

| Re: We'll see what happens when the promo prices expire I know I am going to try that when my promo expires in July. The beginning of last year, I received a flyer because I had Directv, Time Warner offered me Digital cable with one premium channel, with one DVR, and a second digital box, Road Runner, and Digital phone, for $99 a month, guaranteed for 18 months. If I read the current prices, that should be about $150 a month normally. If they don't offer to extend it, I will cancel the cable and go back to Directv (and get less picture loss that I did with Time Warner!!!). I will keep the Road Runner and Digital phone, I have no complaints about either of those. Since we have Embarq for the local phone company, they just cant come close to Time Warner in price. | |
