Does anyone have experience with Verizon DSL in their home?

Thanks


I have had them for almost 2.5 years.
100% reliable -- only downtime I had was when cleaning people
disconnected wire.

Affordable. Good speed. Great customer support. No download limits and
no blocked ports (except port 80, I think).

Also, deal has gotten better with time.
After the initial special offer expired, I was paying $39.95/month for
768/128Kbps. Then about a year later, they lowered price to $34.95 and
upped speed to 1500/128Kbps. A couple of months ago, I got another
"freebie" with the price lowered to $29.95 and speed hiked to
1500/384Kbps.

Even better, Verizon is right now sending trucks all over my
neighborhood installing fiber. The word is that we will be the first
community in MA with Verizon fiber to the home beginning by end of the
year. Speeds up to 15Mbps for maybe $10-20 more than DSL (and about
the cost of cable) -- competition is great

In summary, no complaints.
