I’ve got another group that keeps land-lines: folks like me who live in areas where the internet service provided by the cable company sucks, but the DSL service provided by the phone company is reliable.

I got sick to death of day-long internet service outages (while the cable TV I hardly watch came through fine). Since switching to DSL, the worst I’ve had to do is reboot the mode to restore service.

Did your phone company require that you get voice service in order to have DSL?

I had the opposite experience with DSL/Cable.
