At double the latency because they refuse to turn interleaving off. +32ms penalty for Qwest over Embarq w/ FastPath.

They have fiber...to the node. ADSL2+ means that the fier is generally a mile or more from you. "Last mile" is copper. Ugh.

Twice the speeds of Embarq? Only in selected areas, whereas 10M service from Embarq is available across their footprint.

Also, 20 Mbps service is price prohibitive IMO, at $110 dry-line.
