I have been very happy with my Qwest DSL - 1.5 mps line. Knock on wood it has never gone down and always up to speed. I have had it since July 05. I had mediacom who had 1.5 mbps at the time and that was a dog. Always going down, slooooow. When I did a speed test, the DSL actually was faster at my location than the Cable. For what I use the internet for - email, web surfing, DSL has been great! Our Mediacom for internet is $65 per month! DSL is $25. So, I can't justify $65, but $25 is more what I am after.
