I checked here recently (Lou, Ky) at DSLR, and they listed 15 DSL ISPs. I have no idea if that is accurate, and am somewhat skeptical. Prices all over the place. All were BST partners. I guess Covad pulled out of here. They had over 10 ISPs listed here at one time. I think to get what you want, be prepared to pay more. Maybe a lot. That is the trade off. To be actually guaranteed anything better than 'best effort' will be significantly more. Well into three figures for sure. If you think $50 is going to get anything significantly better, its just not. While checking this, DSLR listed a BST 1500/384 service for here. But no ISPs. Anybody here of that? -- Hal Burgiss
