The only problem I've had was the initial install. Verizon came out to
the house and ran two new lines (don't ask me why)



*Two* new lines is rather odd. Typically, Covad DSL (which is what Speakeasy is using) brings in DSL on a dedicated line, so that means a new loop has to be provisioned from Verizon. This is in contrast to Verizon's DSL, which typically "piggy-backs" on an existing POTS loop.



I *think* Verizon ran two new lines to replace the
two *old* lines, even though I was dropping the
second phone (used primarily for dial-up).  All I
know is I came home one day to find both wires had
been changed and the Covad guy used second one for
the DSL modem when he did his part.  Now I have a
"dedicated" line each for the phone and the DSL
modem.  I decided to just let it ride, keep an eye
on the bills, and not ask any questions (I hate
that glazed look you sometimes get when asking
questions).
