I had ordered 1.5/896 and they screwed up basically and I'm very close to
the CO...like 2 blocks...so I got the 1.5/1.5....shhhh...but even 1.5/896
for 42 is a pretty good deal.  They block no ports and I have had 100%
uptime except for problems with my Cisco 678 locking up that I can't figure
out.

Nate-

How do you get the 1.5 up?  I was just looking at switching to qwest last
week...and it was 1.5 Mbps down/896 Kbps up for $28 (plus about another $14
for ISP services).

If you have phone with quest I think you can get a discount on the ISP
part...but I'm not sure about that.
