Telephone was regular old telephone, with the internet access via cable. We got the whole package: telephone, cable TV, and internet via cable modem. I was satisfied with all the services.

There were occasional glitches with service (seems our external connections at the apartment weren't waterproof among other problems), but they got everything fixed and in satisfactory condition promptly. -- Phil Stripling | email to the replyto address is presumed The Civilized Explorer | spam and read later. email to philip@ http://www.cieux.com/ | my domain is read daily.
