DSL internet service?
Does anyone have DSL internet service? I signed up through AT&T, however there seems to be some problem with the phone lines and I was wondering if anyone else has been successful with it?
After many years of Adelphia and more recently Time Warner, I quit and went to the ATT DSL. Mine is $19 monthly and the combo modem/wireless router was about $50 to buy. The best part is no commitment or 12 month obligation. Just month to month baby! I have always been happy with the cable but damned if I was going to let Time Warner jack the cost up to $45 or $50 per month or what ever ridiculous price they wanted. The ATT is up and running all the time with no trouble so far after the first month or two. I did need to call the 800 support to help get started and they were great. Your Blogger, Howard
Ive had the smogasborg or high speed internet providers as noone wants to stay in this area long. I had @home cable and that went to adelphia. They charged me the same money for less service. Amoung other problems i eventually told adelphia to stuff it. Time warner isnt much better so i wont be going to cable anytime soon.
Ive been a dsl customer for 6 years now here. Pacbell, Sbc, Sbc yahoo, and now ATT. We are too far away to get the best dsl avaialable, but you can get the pro package. You wont get your full download speed here for some reason (3mbit down, i was only getting 1.0 for years, although recently they did something and im getting 1.7 or so) YOu do get your full 386kbit upload though. I think im paying $25 a month. ATT sucks as they dont easily let you jump on the latest promo like sbc did. With sbc every year i jumped on a lower rate. ATT are hardasses.
Overall the quality of the dsl is good, its rarely down (once a year maybe, and thats usually because your phone is down too) So i have no complaints about uptime.
Can whoever approves these maybe make this a new topic?
Im looking to get some recommendations and approx cost for replacing my AC in my unit of someone who might have done it recently. The number on the blog for Fisher is no longer in service. I had a quote from AD Cooper last year and it seemed awefully expensive so i held off and im looking for other options.
I noticed today that almost all of the for sale signs in front of the complex are gone, does anyone know where they went, or why they were removed? I checked the CC&R's, and saw nothing saying that a full sized for sale sign was prohibited, so I'm a little confused, and needless to say, my real estate agent will want to know what happened to it.

Dear Blogger,
Could you please add this as a topic?
I noticed today that almost all of the for sale signs in front of the complex are gone, does anyone know where they went, or why they were removed? I checked the CC&R's, and saw nothing saying that a full sized for sale sign was prohibited, so I'm a little confused, and needless to say, my real estate agent will want to know what happened to it.
