Re: Questions regarding switching back to DSL
Hi Tim.
Nothing is capped. The connection throughput is set at the rate described by the package 'speed'. I have 'elite' and the modem runs at 6016/768 with a payload throughput of 5100/640 once the ATM, etc. overhead takes it's bite out of the raw bitrate.
(That was run with two inbound 128kbps Internet radio streams going.)
No throttles.
The current modems are a Motorola modem (I forget the number but it's the one at Best Buy) and a 2-Wire WiFi gateway.
Servers are permitted. I've run them for 8 years.
You'll probably get an att.net address.

Thanks, I used to have the "Pro" service, which was less-than-satisfactory for me, but at the moment, the "Elite" service appears to be better than the garbage I have through Comcast right now... especially with the rumoured caps.
Also, does the 2Wire allow me to do port forwarding? |

| AT&T is also working on U-Verse in your area as well. Not sure if it is green yet or if it will be green soon, but Plainfield is an area they are working to get. So TV + Internet from AT&T either already is or could soon be an option to you, too. And with AT&T U-Verse Internet, the fastest tier goes all the way to 10 meg down/1.5 meg up.
