Verizon DSL is very hit or miss from my experience. If it works it's fantastic other wise forget it. I lived in an old 3 decker in Worcester and the wiring in the neighborhood was old (Vernon Hill) and whenever it rained or we had snow my connection would go down. My phone worked find but there was too much noise on the line to carry the DSL signal. I called called Verizon where I had good experience with there tech support, the sent out many techs each time correcting the problem a few more feet up the street! When I went to cable they even reimbursed me for my last months service, or lack of service. You mileage may vary ! -Matt Quoting Gregory Avedissian <avedis@rcn.com>:
It seems like most of the providers say that you need windows or mac to use their DSL or cable internet. Does this just mean they won't offer tech support for linux, or does it mean that it won't work? I'm planning on using a router and having two computers connected.
Has anyone had luck with linux and Verizon DSL? They're down to $35/month, and they give you the modem. Anyone know of better deals?
Thanks.
Greg
