I have a verizon dsl as a secondary broadband connection. It took just over 2 months (38 days) from the date it was installed to the date it actually worked. Since then its been extremely reliable. If you can deal with the setup headaches (9 phone calls in total) then it really is a good deal for the price. -Jim
