Hi everyone,

    Our company in Baton Rouge has been using EAtel for phone and 
Internet services for about 15 years - today we received a notice from 
them that they are getting out of the telephone and Internet service 
business in 60 days.  We now have to find another vendor - can anyone 
make any local recommendations?

    We need two or three POTS phone line ports, an 8 port static address 
block, and at least DSL speeds on our data.  We run a mail server, list 
server, two FTP sites, DNS, a low bandwidth Apache web server, and 
firewall into our internal network so we need unrestricted access to all 
the normal ports.

    We do not need (and will not use) "n" mailboxes, domain hosting or 
any of the usual "extra" features that most vendors seem to want to add 
into the contract.

    So far I'm looking a Cox and Bellsouth ... and neither vendor looks 
particularly good although Cox appear to have real people working for 
them while Bellsouth only has 'bots.

    Suggestions? Recommendations?

Regards,
Edmund Cramp
