Re: dslextreme vs sbc?

From what I've seen in the forum, DSLX pricing is no longer cheaper. It's a few bucks more. There's been some people bitching about it recently.

Which do you want: better support or a cheaper price? It's up to you.

Plus it depends on the plan. In my case (Verizon) when looking at static IP or higher speed plans, DSLx continues to be cheaper or offers what VZ won't. My plan is less than 1/2 the price of VZ, plus I get more static IPs.

Perhaps it's because I'm in Bellsouth territory, but their 768Kbps/128Kbps package is $39.99 a month for me. They must be going through Covad to re-sell service to me or something. I can get Earthlink over RoadRunner at 5Mbps/384Kbps for $41.95.

I have tried to see things from your point of view, but no matter how hard I try, or what I do, I just can't get my head that far up my ass.

I agree - if you want static IP's - DSLX is cheaper than SBC/AT&T, however, Sonic is priced comparibly for static.

Basics:
DSLX: $12.95 for 1.5/384 - promo rate no long distance required
AT&T: $12.99 for 1.5/384 - promo rate
AT&T: $14.99 for 1.5/384 local+ld bundle

Must be the location.

On their pricing page for "Network 1", which I believe is LA/SF/SD SBC areas, I'm seeing this for the dynamic, 1 yr contract plans:
Lowest DSL Price in the USA! 384-1500 / 128-384 kbps Starting At: $12.95

High Speed, Super Low Price! 1500-3000 / 384-512 kbps Starting At: $17.95

Limited Time Offer! 1500-6000 / 384-608 kbps Starting At: $49.95
