OT - DSL Providers

Alright, one of these threads again.

Moving to an apartment and I'd like to get hooked up with one of those phone/tv/internet services. I checked out AT&T and it looks like a solid plan. Does anyone else know of a good one?

I just switched from Time Warner to AT&T .....even though I miss a few things I am very happy with it.

What do you miss about Time Warner? Crappy Customer Service? Severe lack of HD channels? High bills?

I have AT&T Yahoo DSL and it works great. This is the only one I've had experience with but we haven't had any problems thus far.

I know after having Charter for a year I learned to appreciate Time Warner Cable.

Charter's the one company won't go near. Had it in college and last year in Wausau. Terrible.

AT@T is ok dsl. I got the 1.3 MB per second package. I wanted faster but don't live close enough to have faster ****. **** thing about it is I tend to have to reboot the dsl box to get it fast again every few days. Other wise it dips down to like 700KB a second. Which chaps my @$$. I just reset the box a few seconds ago while I went to grab a Miller. Cause i'm getting on COD4 to play that new map pack some more on 360.

I've had dsl since ameritech (then sbc, now at&t) I have the elite package (6.0 Mbps & 768 Kbps upload) which I average around 5.2 Mbps & 645 Kbps. It has always been quite reliable. I don't have any bundle so I can't vouch about the TV service at all but I have heard good things about Direct TV which I think they use.
