I use Speakeasy.net. $39.95 for DSL and Dial-up combined. Never down. Awesome customer service. Why pay $24.95 for AOHell dialup when for $39.95 you can get DSL *and* nationwide dial-up? You can var your plans with Speakeasy and add and remove IP's at your bidding. Really a great company. -- ============================================================== Kyle H.
