Hi All, I just moved to 45th & Spruce and I'm having difficulty finding an ISP. There is no cable service of any kind in my little development, so comcast is not even an option.
I had CavTel in center city (which was ok), but they would not transfer my DSL to the new place. I also called DCA.net and they said they don't offer DSL service to my house.
I've decided to try out Verizon Business DSL. It costs 20ドル for dialtone and 40ドル for 3.0/768 DSL. With taxes and fees I expect it to be less than 70ドル/mo. It does NOT include free local outbound phone calls, but all incoming calls are free. I get 1 dynamic IP and 24/7 "biz" tech support.
I'm a little disappointed that it does not include a static IP, but that would be 40ドル/mo more from Verizon and something from Speakeasy.
The line is not installed yet, so I don't know if it will really work, but I have high hopes. My guess is that my wires won't support the full 3.0, but I hope the 768 uplink works.
I'll send an update once verizon tries to hook me up.
