The only problem for me: the provider of DSL will likely want to force a landline on me along with the Internet service. So I must pay $30-$40 per month for a phone I seldom use, plus the Internet fees.
there is such a thing as what they call “dry loop” internet access which is not landline based. I don’t have a landline phone and don’t want to get one. I plan on looking at Earthlink’s version.
Not true.
I have only a data line for which I pay $50 a month.
I’m not required to bundle phone service with my Internet plan.
Order a dry loop.
