I say this every time someone asks. This is a warning not a recommendation...
SWBell DSL has *the worst* customer service in the history of mankind. The only reason I keep them is I'm locked in at $40/month with no PPoE. Their DNS or DHCP server usually goes down for about 6-12 hours once every two months, and always on the night when I have a project due the next day :P On the other hand, if you are an online gamer, their latency is low. I get ping times to campus at night in the 30's (40's during the day), in 60's to download.com anytime, and most importantly 60-90's to uswest.battle.net. My bandwidth never gets better than about 140 KBs, and stays around 120KBs most of the time. -James ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jason Smith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, March 19, 2002 1:55 PM Subject: [Siglinux] Re: [Sigfree] Austin ISP's > Said Doc on Tue, Mar 19, 2002 at 10:57:48AM -0600, > > RoadRunner is the single most aggravating provider of ANYTHING I've > > ever dealt with.
