Totally.  BBR has been around forever and is hands-down the best resource
for cable/DSL subscribers.  If you have DSL/cable and have never visited the
site, please check it out.  It is well worth a visit, even if you are
perfectly happy with whatever service you have right now.

I can't get anything out of my own local DSL provider (SBC, if you must
know) without spending an absurd amount of time on the phone with those, um,
people.  A few minutes on BBR usually yields the information I need
(assuming I can actually get online, of course).

Not at all. Your response was the first one that actually [gasp] _focused on
the question_.  For a minute there, it was beginning to sound like:

Lister: I'm having problems with my G3.  I'm wondering if...
List: Just get a G5.  Next!

Granted, the easiest way to solve a problem with a given provider might well
be to switch.  It's just that it's easy to forget about such things as early
termination fees, the time/effort involved in getting set up with a whole
new provider, etc.

I think the OP would give Qwest the heave-ho if he could do so easily.
However, it sounds like he's trying to eke out what he already has.  Sound
familiar?
