Bellsouth filters outgoing (and probably inbound) port 25, which is

can get around by having your mailhost use port 587 which is the

Honestly, Comcast has the worst service and they are total retards.
One time I witnessed a tech connect his signal meter to a wall jack
and then state that he "added more signal" another case they sent to
replace a cable modem THREE trucks with CABLE TV techs that know
nothing about internet service. To top it off (I am not kidding) they
used the lawn equipment I had sitting in front of my house to clean my
driveway... because there was nothing else they could do.
After Wilma I did not have cable TV for three weeks. One week is the
amount of time they took to fix all the down wires, etc. Another two
weeks without cable caused by the cable between the telephone post and
my house, during which time I had to argue multiple times with Comcast
because they kept on insisting there was an "outage in the area" which
was not the case, everyone around me had cable tv and I could clearly
see the broken cable drop.
Bellsouth I have only had to call their support one time after a DSL
install that would keep on loosing sync. The tech was in Costa Rica I
presume, but was very knowledgeable and was able to get the DSL up and
running in one call, by doing something on their end. The tech even
had asked me what OS I was using and when I said Linux was still
willing to help with the problem! He even expressed his preference of
Linux over Windows.

As far as bandwidth. BellSouth and Comcast filter ports on both of
their
'residential' offerings. They do not filter on the business class. I
have seen that I do get less jitter on a DSL based network. This
may due
to the fact that the CATV Internet offering is an outdated version of
the DOCSIS spec.
I would always go with a copper DSL rather than a CATV based solution.
During Hurricane Wilma my Adelphia (now Comcast) was down for about a
week b/c of damage to the cable plant. Every time I loose power on my
side of the island cable goes out as does the Internet. This is
because
the CATV company does not have backup power on the RTs (Remote
Terminals) BellSouth provides power backup, as a result my 'Naked
DSL'
(no dialtone on the loop) does NOT go down. As long as my UPS
keeps the
DSL Router (Cayman 3347W) up and powers my ATA. All works well.
My vote goes to copper pairs.
