I have had Mstar for almost a month now. The internet speed is pretty good. I don't think it is as fast as advertised but it is plenty fast for me (I came from 256k DSL). I also have their phone service, which I have a few issues with. It works pretty well but isn't really reliable. At times I have a hard time calling in or will lose audio on half the conversation. The callerid just shows the number. You can definitely tell it is VoIP with the delays connecting and a bit of echo in the connection.
In all it is cheap and works acceptably well. For $41 a month, I don't expect a lot I guess. I do need to get another cell phone for when the phone service is down though. If you just want cheap service, MStar seems to be the way to go. If you want reliability and super high speed, I'd go with Xmission or maybe AT&T (http://www.usa.att.com/fiber/index.jsp). Btw, an Xmission sales rep confirmed they will be offering phone service soon. Anyone know anything about it? ~Greg /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
