Looks like it is similarly priced to what I am paying now. I wonder if I switched to the SAFA, which would be coming in on a different pair, if I would be able to get the 6.0?
Currently my line does not qualify for 6.0, but it sure would be nice if I could get it by changing over to SAFA.

SAFA uses the same requirements as adsl limits. if your line dose not qualify for 6.0 on the regular dsl line chances are it would not qualify on the safa, due to distance limits, co avaibility or such. |

If one were to get the standalone FastAccess, would the line incur 911 fees, regulatory recovery fees, etc.; or would it be considered an "unregulated service" and thus not be subject to such fees?
It sounds as though this is basically dry loop DSL service and there is no voice service on the line used for DSL. |

| Years ago, before the FCC overturned rules state PSC/PUCs passed mandating FastAccess DSL be sold to those with an UNE (CLEC) POTS service, it was possible to get BST DSL & have CLEC POTS service in LA GA and KY. Those customers were grandfathered in. |

I was able to order the Bundle97 offer. Ordered it Tuesday and it went into effect today. Still have dial tone on the line but am unable to make or receive calls. It took 3 calls and about an hour and a half of talking before I was able to accomplish it. Very nice find! Been waiting a while for dry DSL.

I don't see why not. I use VoIP (SIP and IAX) just fine with my Asterisk box. |
