Don't assume DSL will be better.  They often block ports too
(as you said, it's well within their service agreement to do
so, but I still think it sucks).
At least 'round here you have far more ISP choices with DSL.
With cable all you get is a choice between 2-3 of the national
"send us your money and shut up" ISPs.  With DSL you can pick
from at least a dozen and a couple of them are top notch local
firms run by geeks for geeks.

Where is that, New York City?  Sounds like the promised land.

Since DSL is supposed to be coming here soon, I'd like to know what is a good one myself. AT&T is the one running the cable but do I have other choices? Is AT&T OK for a home setup? Anything has to beat this stinking dial-up I have right now tho.

Thanks

Dale
