[GRLUG] Broadband prices - selection

[Jim Becher]

All, I have not heard much on the list recently.  I was just interested in what everyone is paying for broadband.  I just switched from Comcast (~$45) per month over to AT&T DSL for $18 per month. And  3 months free  with proof of switching over from a cable modem connection.

So far I have noticed a lower latency and about 2.5 Mbpsdown and 450kps up.  The upload speed is dramatically better with dsl.  I use a vpn connection back to my home for backup / email / and file sharing and the difference is amazing.  

I was very skeptical of DSL, after hearing some horror stories.   However I have not dropped a VOIP call or lost service in the last week.

What has been your experiences with Broadband?
