I would like to upgrade my dialup service which I presently have with 1acce ss.net to DSL. We had DSL through the local phone company in the past at 1M B/s for 35.00 per month and we were told that rate was the cheapest they c ould offer us. We have since learned that other providers can also offer us DSL over an existing phone line. So far 1ccess is the only provider that s ays that they can offer it for around 25.00 a month but for some reason the y can't guarantee that it will work from my location. Their dialup service sucks and they don't seem to be very responsive to customer problems. Most messages left on their answering machine are never returned. Sometimes the dialup is totally unusable. Everyone else says that the only other provider is Comcast and I am not looking for that. I am having trouble and this is very frustrating trying to find companies that will do just the DSL on an e xisting phone line other than my local company who wants to rape me again and 1access who can't guarantee it will work. We are part of an independent telephone company that services 5 towns in our area. Maybe that is the rea son for this. We don't need anything too extravagant. With the 1M we had in the past we were able to watch an occasional video or catch a recap of a TV show we might have missed. Does anyone know if there are in fact other p roviders that can come in and do this? I've heard that this could be found for as cheaply as 15.00 per month. Why does this have to be so damn difficu lt? If anyone can help me with this I'd sure appreciate it. Lenny
