| Plans or promotions for business line?
At my new work place, we have AT&T DSL service. It's listed as "AT&T HSI Express-S" on the bill, and we're charged $50 per month for it. My speedtest results show about 1150 kbps down and 315 kbps up.
I'm sure this DSL service was ordered years ago at this price. Is this the current going price for this rate? Are there any promotions at higher data rates for business customers I should know about before calling AT&T sales?
Thanks. |

| The price for Express-S has been about the same for 2 to 3 years, residential and business.
$50.00 is current for a 2year business Express-S package. What type of modem is being used that might be a better gauge of when the service was ordered. |

| If you are using a speedstream 4100....do you really need the 5 static ip package?

I don't think they use the VPN for anthing anymore. It was painfully slow. Maybe we could jump into the dynamic elite service for $5 more per month and quadruple our speed. |
