DSL... no problems ever until... they mistakenly turned off my phone, they admittend the mistake, turned on the voice line... and took a month to restore the dsl "feature". I have the enhanced dsl pkg with 6 static ip's... will be changing to SPRINT ION when it comes to my area.

Pueo, since you are using a free dialup isp.
Have you looked into www.freedsl.com ?
I can't get it in my area but you should be able to in Houston.
Just check the site and see if you can find if they offer it in Houston.

I recommend you do a simple search for "DSL" in Yahoo, or check out the DSL newsgroups. Both give you all the information you could possibly need.

BTW, Just after I switched from cable to DSL, cable raised their rates by $5 a month more than DSL. I love DSL. Never goes down (unlike cable service), and I constantly get downloads around 742 KB/sec. Not too shabby.
