Re: Ball parkin it, eh?
But remember just a few years back when the cable company had a "shared" line? DSL is supposed to have that DEDICATED constant connection that was so much better than cable. I even have the commercial. |

Sort of like Comcast promising 16 megabits and delivering...nothing. |

Think of it this way...
You are GUARANTEED 6.1Mbps. Now if your constantly getting slower than that you have a right to call in and have them fix it. If they say its 'up to', call their B.S. cuz they say at least 6.1Mbps.  |

Yup - I used to have that for ADSL contract.
1500-3000kbps down and 384-512kbps up.
That was the 'sync' rate though, and does not guarantee much.

I have to agree with AT&T this one. Due to the nature of DSL, they must advertise speed ranges. If you are in the range, they have delivered fairly.
The alternative is require you to take a lower package. I'd hate to be forced to get 3.1MB-6MB because my 9MB wasn't 10MB. |

According to the terms coming soon, yes. Unfortunately. I guess those lawyers got tired of working to get paid. |

So, you sign for 10mbps and only get 6.2 that's good enough?
