Bad Idea

One of the benefits of DSL is that it can be significantly cheaper than cable. Raising the rates won't help Verizon get more customers, especially those migrating from dialup.

Re: Bad Idea

Damn right, for what, about 4 dollars more a month i can tripple my speed with cable? Screw DSL at that price. I want govt regulation back. What i'd really like is a summer boycot of services to encourage lowering prices so we dont pay out the rear for them.

and caps and abuse letters.

It's not all cut and dry. Many get DSL because 99% of the time, you can actually use the connection.

Comcast was sending out abuse letters before the upgrade, imagine now, with even more nodes being overloaded.
